Case Details
Disease Location
Kidney
Personal Characteristics
26 years old woman, pregnant
Clinical Characteristics
Right flank pain and gross hematuria and bladder tamponade. Slight right hydronephrosis. Bleeding through the right ureteral orifice. 2 years after treatment, arterious malformation was confirmed.
Remission Characteristics
7 months after diagnoses, no evidence of arterio-venous malformation was found. Patient was free of hematuria.
Treatment & Mechanisms
Proposed Remission Mechanisms
Selective cathetetization during arteriography might have damaged the fragile vessels of arterio-venous malformation, which resulted in the formation of thrombosis
Clinical Treatment
Treatment with tranexamic acid
