Abstract

Renal artery aneurysm (RAA) is one of the rare visceral aneurysms and has an estimated incidence of 0.1% in the general population. When the aneurysmal sac is irregular and larger than 2cm in diameter, treatment is needed for preventing its rupture. There are many methods for the treatment of RAA. Here we report the treatment of a RAA patient with a double microcatheter technique (DMT) to embolize renal hilar region aneurysm using coils and glue. Further, we also review the literature and propose that DMT is an effective and optional treatment for RAA.
