An extremely rare case of an incidentally detected renal vein aneurysm and review of literature

Congenital renal vein aneurysms are a truncular type of venous malformation and are believed to be the outcome of defective development during the later stage of embryogenesis while the venous trunk is being formed. There have been 9 case reports so far. Here, we add the report of a patient who was incidentally detected to have a renal vein aneurysm on computed tomography angiogram. In addition, this is the first description of inferior vena cava thrombosis associated with a thrombosed saccular aneurysm of the renal vein

Hemodialysis access in a patient with severe hemophilia: Technical challenges

A case report on the challenges in establishing hemodialysis access for a hemophiliac with factor VIII inhibitors. A 23-year-old male patient, a known case of congenital Hemophilia A for 6 months of age, presented with recurrent hemarthroses, uncontrolled hypertension, and azotemia; on evaluation, he was diagnosed to be suffering from chronic kidney disease. He was on factor VIII supplementation for hemophilia and was recently diagnosed with factor VIII inhibitors as he was becoming refractory to treatment. The hemodialysis access for this patient is technically challenging as the patient has blood dyscrasia. Herein discussing the choices we had in this patient and challenges faced by us in securing the hemodialysis access
