Treatment of a urinoma and a post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm using selective arterial embolization.
We report a case of severe renal trauma giving rise to a pseudoaneurysm of a renal branch artery and a large urinoma secondary to fracture of a calix disconnected from the rest of the collecting system. Both conditions were successfully treated using selective arterial embolization.
