Renal arteriovenous fistula following kidney biopsy in systemic lupus erythematosus

K H Leong et al. Singapore Med J. 1993 Aug.

Abstract

Patients with lupus nephritis frequently undergo renal biopsies. A rare complication of this procedure is the development of renal arteriovenous fistulas. We report two patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who developed this vascular complication several years after renal biopsy.
