Treatment of macrohematuria following nephrolitiazis operation with coil embolization

Abstract

Nephrolithiasis is a prevalent systemic disorder which is treated with percutaneous nephrolithotomy and surgery. Hematuria is one of complications which may appear after these procedures. Even though it is usually treated conservatively, it sometimes requires advanced approaches such as renal artery coil embolization, graft stenting, and open surgery. This paper reports treatment of macrohematuria occurred after percutaneous nephrolitotomy with coil embolization.
