Rim em ferradura com cistos e ureter único: relato de caso

Horseshoe kidney is the most common of all renal fusion anomalies, occurring in approximately 0.25% of the general population. Horseshoe kidney with only a single ureter is a rare anomaly. A 60-year-old man was admitted to hospital for routine health screening. His family history was negative for kidney diseases, and there was no abnormality in his physical examination. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed an atypical horseshoe kidney with cysts and three-dimensional spiral CT reconstruction showed the presence of a single ureter. The patient has since been followed up for two years without any signs of clinical disease. We report a rare case of a patient with a horseshoe kidney with cysts and a single ureter that was diagnosed incidentally.

Fístula arteriovenosa pós-nefrolitotripsia percutânea

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a rare complication of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL). We report the case of a 70-year-old man, who had massive bleeding after PNL and underwent treatment with superselective renal angiographic embolization and stent implantation. Bleeding resolved after embolization. Arteriovenous fistula is an uncommon complication of PNL, which may be successfully treated with angiographic embolization.
