The diagnosis of two cases was confirmed by operations which were supposed to be the intrarenal aneurysma on account of the ringform calcification on X-ray examination.
Case 1. The patient, a 58 year old female, had the bilateral renal aneurysm associated with right renal stone. To this very rare case, the right side nephrectomy was carried out.
Case 2. The patient, a 27 year old male, was found to have the renal aneurysm in the right kidney. The aneurysmectomy was performed in good result, probably the first successful case in Japan.
Reno-scintigram was traced in these cases as a diagnostic method which has not been found in literatures. In the first case, there was seen round shadow defect on the renal scintigram coincident with the aneurysm.
Etiology, symptoms, diagnosis & treatment of this disorder are discussed with review of literatures.
