Isolated dissecting aneurysm of the renal artery.
A 40-year-old man with a history of renal stone formation was evaluated for left flank pain. An excretory urogram failed to show any renal calculi. However, renal arteriography and computerized tomography studies demonstrated a primary dissection of the left renal artery with resulting decreased perfusion to the lower pole of the left kidney.
