Abstract
Purpose: To present a renal artery aneurysm that was treated successfully by endoluminal grafting. Case Report: A 48-year-old woman presented with a 2.5-cm saccular left renal artery aneurysm. A Jostent coronary stent-graft was placed transluminally into the left renal artery via a femoral artery cutdown. After 12 months, renal function remained normal, and computed tomography revealed normal kidney perfusion with complete resolution of the renal artery aneurysm. Conclusions: The advances in endovascular stent-grafts will allow more visceral artery aneurysms to be treated with a minimally invasive approach.Keywords
