Successful Surgical Treatment of Aortoenteric Fistula
In order to establish optimal management for aortoenteric fistula (AEF) the records of five patients treated for AEF (four aortoduodenal and one aortogastric fistula) were retrospectively reviewed. The arterial reconstruction procedures were selected according to the surgical findings, underlying cause, and patient status. In situ aortic reconstructions with prosthetic grafts were performed on ...
متن کاملAortoenteric Fistula as a Complication of Open Reconstruction and Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aorta
The paper intends to present a review of imaging characteristics of secondary aortoenteric fistula (AEF). Mechanical injury, infection, and adherence of a bowel segment to the aorta or aortic graft are major etiologic factors of AEF after open aortic repair. The pathogenesis of AEF formation after endovascular abdominal aortic repair is related to mechanical failure of the stent-graft, to stent...
متن کاملTemporary endovascular control of a bleeding aortoenteric fistula by transcatheter coil embolization.
A 67-year-old man presented with gastrointestinal bleeding resulting from a fistula between the aortic stump and the fourth part of the duodenum 14 months after an axillobifemoral bypass, graft excision, and aortic stump closure for aortic graft infection. The patient initially refused any attempt at definitive surgical treatment so coil embolization of the aortic stump was performed via a brac...
متن کاملAn Aortoenteric Fistula Arising after Endovascular Management of a Mycotic Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Complicated with a Psoas Abscess
Mycotic aortic aneurysms account for 1–3% of all aortic aneurysms. The management of this disease is controversial. Since open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, endovascular aneurysm repair is an alternative treatment method with promising early and midterm outcomes, although its long-term durability is unknown.Secondary aortoenteric fistulas may occur iatro...
متن کاملA Deadly Connection: Aortoenteric Fistula as a Cause of Acute Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
A 66-year-old white man with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, COPD, lung cancer, and aortoiliac bypass graft placed 6 years prior for peripheral vascular disease, presented with 3 days of melena and syncopal events associated with bowel movements. The patient reported having coffee ground emesis and dark, tarry stools with onset of his syncope. Physical exam showed bright red blood per rectum and ...
