- Abstract
Background: Renal arteriovenous fistula (RAVF) is a serious complication that may occur within the first few days following percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) procedures. It is usually an iatrogenic complication. Case Presentation: We are presenting a case in which a patient had pseudoaneurysm following PCNL and was treated endovascularly, followed by a sudden RAVF 25 days after the pseudoaneurysm treatment, which was treated once again endovascularly. Conclusion: Although RAVF was not seen in the early stage during the Digital subtraction angiography that was performed during the treatment of pseudoaneurysm, it suddenly symptomatically appeared in the late stage. We should keep hemorrhagic complications in mind during later stages.
