Endovascular management of an acquired aortobronchial fistula following aortic bypass for coarctation.
Aortobronchial fistula (ABF) in the setting of aortic coarctation repair is very rare but uniformly fatal if untreated. Endovascular stenting of the descending aorta is now the first-choice approach for ABF presenting with haemoptysis and offers a less-invasive technique with improved outcomes, compared with open repair. We report a case of late ABF occurring following bypass for aortic coarcta...
متن کاملAtypical chest pain and hemoptysis 27 years after aortic coarctation surgery: aortobronchial fistula, management and endovascular treatment.
Aortobronchial fistula (ABF) is a rare, late, and usually catastrophic complication that should be suspected in any patient who has undergone a surgical procedure involving descending thoracic aorta. It usually presents as atypical chest pain that is followed by massive hemoptysis and death due to blood loss if emergency surgery is not performed. Our patientwas a 39-year-oldman,whose only notab...
متن کاملEndovascular Management of Aortic Coarctation in an Adult Patient
Coarctation of the Aorta (CoA) accounts for approximately 5% of all congenital heart defects worldwide, with a three-fold greater prevalence in males than females [1]. Because it frequently occours side by side with other abnormalities such as bicuspid aortic valve and ventricular septal defect, it is often missed out in the differential. This makes it all the more necessary to use radiological...
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 کاملThoracic endovascular aortic repair of aortobronchial fistulas.
BACKGROUND Thoracic endovascular aortic repair of aortobronchial fistulas is an emerging treatment modality for this highly lethal condition. The feasibility and long-term durability of this form of intervention are largely unknown. METHODS The records of five patients who received endografts to treat aortobronchial fistulas at our institution were reviewed. A literature review was also condu...
