Emergency endovascular and percutaneous urological interventions: A pictorial review

Tara Prasad Tripathy et al. Emerg Radiol. 2024 Aug.

Abstract

Emergency endovascular and percutaneous urological interventions encompass various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures to address various genitourinary conditions. These urological interventions are life-saving in addressing complications following biopsy, post-nephrectomy, post-transplant, and post-trauma. Compared to other surgical fields, there are relatively fewer urological emergencies. However, they require prompt radiological diagnosis and urgent interventions. This pictorial essay emphasizes various urological emergencies and urgent interventional management.

Keywords: Angiomyolipoma; Coiling; Endovascular intervention; Post renal biopsy bleed; Pseudoaneurysm; Urology.
