Sabina Prevljak, Aladin Carovac, Nadina Jakirlic. Abstract | | | | Background: Renal artery aneurysm is very rare and most often incidental finding and we will present it in our case report. Case Report: We report a case of 65 years old women who was sent to our hospital Clinic of Radiology. We detected a renal artery aneurysm on the left side on the ultrasound and later we confirmed it on the CTA of the abdominal aorta and its visceral branches. Discussion: Renal artery aneurysms can be classified in true anaurysm and pseudoaneurysm. They are more often find at females. They can be fusiform or saccular in appearance and are extraparenchymal in 90% of cases. Most are saccular and noncalcified. Conclusion: In the case of renal artery aneurysm that we founded we recommended regular Color Doppler ultrasound examinations, consultation from the urologist and CTA control if there is a need.
Key words: Aneurysm, CTA, Renal artery
