Abstract :We report a case of renal artery embolism treated conservatively. Owing to its rare occasion, we reviewed etiology, symptoms, diagnostic methods and therapeutic approaches of renal artery embolism. We conclude that dynamic computerized tomography is a valuable, non-invasive method in the diagnosis of renal artery embolism.
