[Diagnosis and therapy of renal artery emboli].
The Authors, after reviewing recent years works, have referred aetiological, physiopathological, diagnostic and treatment data concerning renal artery embolism. The study, completed with report of one personal case, has allowed to emphasize on the importance of selective angiography which, among others examens proposed, is the only one able to give precise evaluation of vascular trouble. Emphasis is also given, except for unusual, cases, on the necessity of surgical management (early embolectomy or delayed one) that, giving a sound evaluation of parenchimal damage, also gives a considerable chance of good outcome.
