Objective  To investigate the clinical effect of renal artery interventional embolization in the treatment of patients with surgical renal hemorrhage.

  Methods  A total of 74 patients with surgical renal hemorrhage who underwent renal angiography and interventional embolization in the urological surgical department were selected. The clinical features and clinical outcomes were analyzed.

  Results  All of 74 patients in this group successfully completed renal arteriography, angiographic abnormalities occurred in 66 cases (89.2%) and interventional embolization in 69 cases (93.2%). No obvious abnormality was found in 8 patients, three of whom received prophylactic embolization of renal artery. Out of 69 patients who underwent interventional embolization, 66 patients (95.7%) achieved good results, three patients had no obvious relief in bleeding after interventional therapy or re-bleeding after relief. After a second interventional embolization, the patients were improved.

  Conclusion  Most patients with surgical renal hemorrhage showed abnormal renal angiography, and the vast majority of patients can obtain good therapeutic effect by selective renal artery embolization, aminority of patients who require secondary intervention can also achieve satisfactory results.
