Management of hemorrhage secondary to renal angiomyolipoma with selective arterial embolization.
Percutaneous transcatheter arterial embolization was used to manage renal hemorrhage secondary to an angiomyolipoma in a solitary kidney. Angiography 3 months after the embolization showed a marked decrease in the mass and vascularity. There was no evidence of hypertension or renal failure following embolization.
