GOMEZ-ARBELAEZ, Diego et al. Repair of complex left renal artery aneurysm: laparoscopic nephrectomy, ex vivo reconstruction and heterotopic autotransplantation. Angiología [online]. 2022, vol.74, n.4, pp.191-194.  Epub 24-Oct-2022. ISSN 1695-2987.  https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/angiologia.00413.

Renal artery aneurysms are rare clinical entities. While most cases are asymptomatic and detected incidentally, rupture is associated with high mortality rates and loss of the aff ected kidney in survivors. although most of these aneurysms can be treated by endovascular or in situ repair techniques, this may not be possible in patients with complex aneurysms, such as those located at the arterial bifurcation. We present a case of complex renal aneurysm successfully treated by laparoscopic nephrectomy, ex vivo vascular reconstruction, and heterotopic autotransplantation.

Palabras clave : Renal artery aneurysm; Laparoscopic nephrectomy; Ex vivo repair; autotransplantation.
