Renal arteriovenous fistula (AVF), an abnormal connection between artery and vein, results from development failure or following vascular injury. AVFs may cause various complications, i.e., secondary hypertension and hematuria. To manage AVF, it is recommended to bypass it from blood circulation surgically or by percutaneous embolization. The present study describes a woman with AVF, who primarily was managed percutaneously and then surgically.
