Macroscopic hematuria regards the 4% to 20% of all urological visits. Renal artery aneurysms (RAAs) are detected in approximately 0.01%–1% of the general population, while intraparenchymal renal artery aneurysms (IPRAAs) are even more rarely detected in less than 10% of patients with RAAs. We present a case of a 58-year-old woman that came into the emergency room (ER) complaining of a gross hematuria during the last four days. Although in the ER room the first urine sample was clear after a cough episode, a severe gross hematuria began which led to a hemodynamically unstable patient. Finally, a radical nephrectomy was performed, and an IPRAA was the final diagnosis. A cough deteriorating hematuria could be attributed to a ruptured intraparenchymal renal artery aneurysm, which even though constitutes a rare entity, it is a life-threatening medical emergency.

Objective: Anteriovenous fistula is a high-flow vascular malformation. Anteriovenous fistula is characterized by a direct connection between an artery and a vein without the presence of a nidus (network of arterial and venous channels). Renal artery aneurysm concomitant with a renal arteriovenous fistula is extremely rare. Case report: We reported the case of a 45-year-old female who has giant renal artery aneurysm combined with high-flow RAVF who presented with gross hematuria. The patient’s embolization of a giant extrarenal aneurism arteriovenous fistula was successfully treated using specialized coils and plug device. Conclusions: Renal arteriovenous fistula is a disease that can lead to serious complications. Treatment of this condition should be initiated promptly after diagnosis. Embolization endovascular is a feasible, efficient and safe method which can maximally retain normal renal function.
