Abstract
Renal artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms are an uncommon clinical problem
with a low incidence rate. They are abnormal dilatations of the vessel lumen with
some different natures. However, the rupture of an aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm
is the most dreaded complication because it causes death of the patient. There are
many causes of renal artery aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm, including Behçet's
disease; however, renal involvement in Behçet's disease is less frequent.We report a
case of renal artery pseudoaneurysm induced by Behçet's disease and treated successfully
with coil embolization. A 56-year-old woman with Behçet's disease presented
with an incidental left renal artery pseudoaneurysm measuring 18 mm. We
successfully performed endovascular treatment with coil embolization instead of
surgical treatment.
