Abstract
A case of infarction of the left testis secondary to transcatheter embolization of a malignant left renal tumor with absolute ethanol is presented. The mechanism producing this complication was due to the anomalous nature of the left testicular artery, originating from the left renal artery distal to the site of the balloon occlusion catheter. The importance of this anomaly is discussed and the literature reviewed.Entities:
