Abstract
We present a case of an 18-year-old female who underwent two percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures complicated with haematuria. Angiography revealed the presence of an aneurysm of the right superior renal artery branch and arterio-pelvic fistula. The aneurysm was successfully obliterated using alcohol injection via coronary balloon catheter.
