A retrospective chart review conducted at our institution revealed 5 cases of secondary AEF occurring between 2006 and 2010. Presentations were diverse, including hematemesis, coffee-grou...
متن کاملDouble Primary Aortoenteric Fistulae: A Case Report of Two Simultaneous Primary Aortoenteric Fistulae in One Patient

We encountered a 75-year-old male patient suffering from abdominal pain, hematochezia, hematemesis, and hypotension. His computed tomography images showed abdominal aortic aneurysm and suspected aortoenteric fistulae....
متن کاملEndovascular Therapy of TASC-D Lesion in Critical Limb Ischemia
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a terminal stage of peripheral artery disease (PAD); it is defined by the presence of resting pain and/or tissue loss for at least two weeks that may require urgent revascularization to promote healing and prevent limb loss. For patients with infrarenal aortoiliac occlusive disease, the revascularization options are surgery like aortofemoral bypass and axillofemo...
متن کاملOutcomes of endovascular treatment for patients with TASC II D femoropopliteal occlusive disease: a single center study
BACKGROUND Advances in endovascular technology led to an alternative treatment option for TASC II D (TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II class D) lesions. This study was aimed to evaluate the outcomes of endovascular treatment for TASC II D femoropopliteal lesions. METHODS Endovascular intervention with bare nitinol stent implantation was performed on 58 limbs (53 patients) with TASC II ...
