Introduction. Renal biopsy is a procedure that contributed to the knowledge of kidney disease since 1950. Kidney biopsy is also a diagnostic tool to evaluate renal transplantation and clinical monitoring, as well as, to choose the best treatment. Complications in Renal biopsy were reduced as much as 95% with the use of ultrasound and automatic biopsy needles. Clinical case. We present the case of a young patient, 29 years old, who developed a high flow arteriovenous fistula post renal biopsy, successfully treated by a selective arterial embolization. Discussion. The most frequent complication of kidney biopsies are: perirenal hematoma, macroscopic hematuria, arteriovenous fistula, pseudoaneurysm, urethral obstruction and active hemorr and veins, creating a communication between both vessels. In Hospital de las Fuerzas Armadas N°1, kidney biopsy indications in kidney grafts are: protocol biopsies, kidney grafts evaluation to find graft dysfunction due to humoral or celular rejection and to investigate anticalcineurinic toxicity. Conclusion. Selective renal embolization is a minimally invasive technique and is an alternative for the treatment of the arteriocalicial fistula, thus avoiding nephrectomy
of the renal graft.
