Kidney artery bulge after kidney stone surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at a bulge in a kidney artery that can happen after surgery to remove kidney stones. It may help doctors understand how to treat this problem better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You had surgery to remove kidney stones (called percutaneous nephrolithotomy or PCNL).
- You have a bulge in a kidney artery (called a renal artery pseudoaneurysm) that was confirmed by a special scan (CT angiography).
- You have been followed for at least 30 days after the surgery.
- You do not have any known kidney blood vessel differences from birth, and your medical records are complete.

This study looks at how well surgery works to fix a bulging area (pseudoaneurysm) in the arm vein used for dialysis. If the bulging area is causing skin problems, blocking needle placement, or risking infection, surgery may help make dialysis safer.
This study looks at how often kidney injury happens after a surgery to remove blood clots or tumors from the lung arteries (called pulmonary endarterectomy). The goal is to understand risk factors so doctors can better protect kidneys before and after surgery.
This study tests if a simple technique done before surgery can protect your kidneys during open surgery for a bulging blood vessel in your belly. It might reduce the risk of kidney damage after the operation.
This study follows patients with a genetic kidney disease (autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease) who are on dialysis and receive a procedure to block blood flow to their enlarged kidneys. Researchers will track how well the procedure works and how it affects patients over time using imaging scans.
This study compares two ways of getting a needle to the kidney for PCNL surgery (a procedure to remove stones). It aims to find which approach is safer and more effective for people with kidney stones between 1.5 and 3 cm.
This study compares two ways to reach kidney stones during a surgery called percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). The purpose is to see if one method is safer or works better than the other, which may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
