Abstract

Renal artery aneurysms are uncommon. They are either incidentally discovered or identified during workup for secondary hypertension. An association with rupture at sizes greater than 1.5 cm exists. In this case report, the exclusion of a renal aneurysm with a covered stent is described. In spite of compromise of a side‐branch vessel, there were no deleterious effects on renal function at 6‐month follow‐up. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2004;61:314–316. Β© 2004 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
