Abstract

We report a case of simultaneous bilateral dissection of the renal arteries with partial renal infarction. Of interest is the fact that the dissection resolved spontaneously during the 1-year followup. The radiology, including angiography, computerized tomography and ultrasonography, findings are described. The etiology and treatment of isolated dissection of the renal artery also are discussed.
