ABSTRACT: Introduction: The risk of rupture of true renal artery aneurysms is low but when they are
bigger than 2 - 2.5 cm it
increases significantly, making treatment essential. The need to use
alternatives to conventional techniques in
order to avoid predictable complications as coil migration is mandatory. Discussion: Routinely-used techniques in interventional neuroradiology such as flow
diverters or those assisted with
an occlusion balloon or stent have are suitable
alternatives for complex aneurysms. Conclusion: Interventional neuroradiology devices such as the Cascade Net stent (Perflow
Medical and Grupo Logsa) and Solitaire AB stent retriever
(Medtronic) are valid and safe options. We describe the technique of such devices.
