Abstract
Chronic unilateral hematuria (CUH) is characterized by intermittent or continuous gross hematuria that cannot be diagnosed using standard radiology and hematology. The authors report a case of CUH with no discrete lesion at ureteroscopy, successfully treated by selective renal artery embolization. Renal artery embolization could be a treatment option for selected patients with clinically intractable CUH. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
