Purpose: To report the embolization of a renal artery aneurysm using Onyx, a radiopaque nonadhesive liquid embolic agent. Case Report: A 28-year-old woman with hypertension and fibromuscular dysplasia presented with a 20-mm renal artery aneurysm. In order to avoid any migration of embolic material into the parent vessel, a compliant balloon was inflated to exclude the aneurysm from the blood flow while injecting the liquid embolic agent. Complete aneurysm exclusion was achieved immediately, with no angiographic or duplex evidence of distal embolization or intra-aneurysmal flow. The Doppler ultrasound at 6 months confirmed aneurysm exclusion. Conclusions: The ease of use and nature of this material makes Onyx an effective and safe option in the treatment of wide-necked renal aneurysms.

This is the first report, to our knowledge, of widespread, histologically confirmed trisacryl gelatin pulmonary microembolism after renal artery embolization (RAE). In addition, this is the first report of lung involvement by both metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and an embolic agent used for RAE. The patient was a 63-year-old woman who recently presented with both dyspnea on exertion and productive cough. Her past medical history included clear cell RCC, which was treated with preoperative trisacryl gelatin microsphere RAE and right nephrectomy 9 years earlier. Computed tomography of the chest showed multiple lung nodules, a mass-like density in the left lower lobe, and mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy. Wedge resections of the lung showed multiple foci of metastatic RCC and extensive involvement of the muscular pulmonary arteries by trisacryl gelatin microspheres.
