Endovascular Aspiration Thrombectomy in the Management of Kidney Ischemia: A Case Report.

Renal artery occlusion is a serious event that can result in significant impairment or loss of renal function, leading to dialysis dependency. The nonspecific signs and symptoms of its presentation frequently result in a delay in diagnosis, thus contributing to delay in treatment. We report the case of a 53-year old woman who suffered renal artery occlusion, in which the renal perfusion was restored after three days of ischemia, by endovascular aspiration thrombectomy.
