Abstract

Interruption of arterial blood supply to the kidney results in acute renal failure (ARF). We describe a case of ARF caused by renal artery spasm following resection of a large abdominal neuroblastoma, combined with paraaortic lymph node dissection and ipsilateral nephrectomy. The blood flow was reestablished by administration of local anesthetics (lidocaine) into the obliterated renal artery through the angiographic catheter. An urgent angiography was of value for the early diagnosis and treatment of this lesion.
