Mechanical aspiration thrombectomy in the treatment of acute intrastent renal artery thrombosis

Chimney-and-periscope technique for thoraco-abdominal aneurysm repair is a valuable treatment option in selected patients. Acute renal artery occlusion is a serious complication after this technique. We report a case of acute right renal artery occlusion, consequent to a previous chimney-and-perisco...

Description
Summary:Chimney-and-periscope technique for thoraco-abdominal aneurysm repair is a valuable treatment option in selected patients. Acute renal artery occlusion is a serious complication after this technique. We report a case of acute right renal artery occlusion, consequent to a previous chimney-and-periscope technique that was treated urgently by mechanical aspiration thrombectomy. •Acute renal artery thrombosis remains one of the most serious vascular pathology that has to be treated promptly.•Mechanical aspiration thrombectomy is now used in abdominal visceral arteries to solve acute thrombosis.
