Abstract :
Introduction: Renal arteriovenous fistula is a rare clinical entity which may have a serious effect on the hemodynamics.
Case Presentation: We report a case of renal arteriovenous fistula with undetermined diagnosis at her first presentation. Finally
after 9 years her problem was diagnosed and managed successfully with coil embolization.
Conclusions: We should consider renal arteriovenous fistula as a differential diagnosis for hematuria. The gold standard modality
for evaluation is DSA. Endovascular management is the best treatment.
