Abstract

Isolated renal artery thrombosis is a rare disease that usually results from systemic embolization and seldom secondary to in-situ thrombosis.1 Management is driven by the clinical presentation, timing and location of the occlusion. Various management options include anticoagulation, systemic thrombolysis, catheter directed thrombolysis or surgery. Recently, ultrasound-enhanced catheter directed thrombolysis has been approved for the management of pulmonary embolism. In our case we have successfully managed isolated renal artery thrombus via ultrasound-enhanced catheter directed thrombolysis.
