      artery aneurysm].
PG  - 413-6
AB  - A 74-year male patient was admitted to our department with a left renal artery 
      aneurysm (RAA). It was detected by a computed tomography (CT) scan while 
      performing an examination for hypertension. The diameter of the aneurysm was 25 
      mm. There was no evidence of calcification. Selective left renal angiography and 
      a 3-dimensional (3D)-CT image revealed a saccular renal aneurysm in the left main 
      renal artery. Because of the risk of rupture, autotransplantation of the left 
      kidney to the left iliac fossa was performed after resecting the aneurysm and 
      reconstructing the left artery under bench surgery. Postoperative 3D-CT revealed 
      no stenosis. This ex-vivo technique and autotransplantation into ipsilateral 
      iliac fossa are both effective and safe for the treatment of RAA.
