Abstract

Percutaneous renal biopsy is a convenient method to obtain allograft tissue for histologic evaluation. Vascular complications, such as arteriovenous (AV) fistula and pseudoaneurysm, following renal biopsy are well known, and they usually resolve without further intervention. When symptomatic, they should be treated. We present a patient on chronic anticoagulation who developed a pseudoaneurysm after percutaneous renal biopsy. Applying techniques learned in the management of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm, we treated our patient with ultrasound‐guided thrombin injection. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
