Allograft biopsy is a cornerstone in the management of transplanted kidneys. It is a safe procedure, often performed in the outpatient setting. A rare complication is formation of a postbiopsy arteriovenous fistula (AVF). We present here a report of two cases of postbiopsy AVFs treated endovascularly. Selective embolization is a safe and effective method of treatment of postbiopsy AVFs in renal allografts.
