Abstract
Most intrarenal pseudoaneurysms result from a laceration of the renal arter y or its branches. However, tumor-induced renal pseudoaneurysm is very rare . We report a case in which embolization of an intrarenal pseudoaneurysm co mplicating renal metastases resulting from a choriocarcinoma was successful . (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc.
