Endovascular treatment of wide-neck saccular renal artery aneurysm with waffle-cone technique

Tratamento endovascular de aneurisma renal sacular com colo largo com técnica do waffle-cone

Abstract

In the past, treatment of visceral artery aneurysms (VAAs) was exclusively surgical. These aneurysms were rarely diagnosed in elective or emergency cases. Development of imaging techniques and endovascular procedures has changed the history of the therapeutic options for this pathology. Endovascular management of VAAs has arisen to advances in endovascular techniques and has achieved high efficacy.
