description | The primary objective was to evaluate the clinical success rate after endovascular embolization of iatrogenic vascular lesions caused during partial nephrectomy. The secondary objective was to evaluate the technical success and to assess potential effects on renal function. We retrospectively included consecutive patients from our center who underwent selective embolization to treat iatrogenic renal arterial lesions induced during partial nephrectomy between June 2010 and June 2020. The technical and clinical success rates and renal outcomes were collected. We identified 25 patients with 47 pseudoaneurysms and nine arteriovenous fistulas. Among them, eight were treated by coils only, eight by liquid embolization agents only, and nine by both. The technical success rate was 96% after the first attempt and 100% after the second attempt. The median follow-up was 27.1 ± 24.3 months. Clinical success, defined as no need for further hemostatic surgery during follow-up, was also obtained in 96% and 100% of patients with one and two attempts, respectively. Renal function estimated by the modification of diet in renal disease equation did not change significantly despite a mean 13.8% ± 15.1% decrease in kidney functional volume estimated by angiography. No complications were attributable to the endovascular treatment. No significant difference was found across embolization agents; however, the subgroup sizes were small. Endovascular embolization is safe and effective for treating iatrogenic arterial lesions after partial nephrectomy: success rates are high, complications are infrequent, and renal function is maintained. Recommendations by interventional radiology societies are needed to standardize this treatment. |
