Abstract We used a Tracker-18 perfusion catheter and microcoils to embolise a renal pseudoaneurysm caused by blunt trauma with rupture of kidney, haemorrhage and persistent haematuria. Conservative management can be employed to treat serious renal trauma provided that the source of the bleeding can successfully be embolised with superselective techniques.
