Devices implanted on (b)(6) 2016: cook devices = zpen-p-2-28-124 (ac982361), zpen-d-20-62-94 (ac982360), tfle-12-90-zt (7134510) right iliac leg.Non-cook devices = medtronic hippocampus renal rx stent 8mm*20mm right renal artery, gore viabahn stent 8mm*25mm left renal artery.The following post-procedure information has been provided: abdominal ultrasound examination was performed at 22:40 on (b)(6) 2016, which suggested right perirenal hematoma.At 1:45 on (b)(6) 2016 emergency angiography was performed through femoral artery puncture.The result showed contrast leakage at the junction of aortic stent and right iliac artery.Two stents (medtronic 2613120) were implanted in the right iliac artery.Intraoperative ultrasound exploration showed no obvious progress of retroperitoneal hematoma, and femoral artery incision was closed.The patient's vital signs were stable.The patient continued to have gross hematuria and hemoglobin decreased after surgery.So, another renal arteriography and iliac arteriography were performed at 23:00 on (b)(6) 2016.This time the contrast leakage at the right renal artery was detected, and renal artery embolization was performed.After surgery on (b)(6) 2016, the patient retained the foley catheter, showing gross hematuria.The patient was diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction and acute left heart failure on (b)(6) 2016, treated with medication.Later acute pancreatitis was diagnosed without a clear onset date, then patient was treated with medication.The patient was discharged and transferred to a lower level hospital on (b)(6) 2016.
