Abstract:

This article spotlights problems of diagnostic and treatment of rare vascular complication: false aneurysm of transplanted kidney artery We describe a case of successful treatment using stent-assisted aneurysm embolization. Our case is illustrated with ultrasound, computed tomography and angiographic images and 30-day follow-up data.
