Abstract

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common hereditary kidney diseases. In addition to renal involvement, vascular complications including intracranial arterial, aortic aneurysms and dissections are common in these patients. We report the case of a 35-year-old male patient with ADPKD who presented with hematuria and was diagnosed with two intrarenal arterial pseudoaneurysms. Endovascular embolization using coils was performed to resolve these symptoms. Vascular complications are often encountered in patients with ADPKD; hence, sufficient clinical suspicion and timely diagnosis can help manage the disease. The most common causes of hematuria in ADPKD patients are cyst hemorrhage or infection; however, vascular aneurysms should also be considered a possibility.
