Abstract

  • A 72-year-old man with peripheral arterial disease, an atrophic left kidney, and prior right renal chimney stent as part of a complex endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair presented to our emergency department with right flank pain and anuria resulting from right artery occlusion. His serum creatinine on admission was 7.5 mg/dL. Computed tomography angiography 6 days after the onset of his symptoms revealed complete occlusion of the right renal artery stent. Percutaneous thrombectomy was performed restored renal blood flow. The urine flow started the following day, and his serum creatinine decreased to 3.5 mg/dL 7 days after discharge.
