چکیده
Pseudoaneurysm is an infrequent complication of aortic coarctation repair. It occurs in 5-9% patients. Further complications such as pseudoaneurysm rupture or aorto-pulmonary fistula (APF) carry a high mortality rate and represent therapeutical.

We describe a man with the Marfan syndrome and a prior ascending aortic aneurysm resection who presented with knee pain and concern of endocarditis. Transesophageal echocardiogram showed no vegetations, and computed tomography angiogram of the heart showed a possible pseudoaneurysm. Cardiac catheterization and aortogram revealed the diagnosis of an aorto-right atrial fistula, which was then ope...

This case illustrates an incidence of acute pulmonary embolism following Achilles tendon repair in a 35-year-old woman. We discuss the possible causes and the need for thromboprophylaxis.

متن کاملAcute aorto-pulmonary fistula following balloon pulmonary angioplasty after arterial switch operation.
A 13-year old girl, who had undergone arterial switch operation using the Lecompte manoeuvre for TGA, developed aortopulmonary fistula derived from the balloon angioplasty for pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis (Fig. 1A–C). Because the adhesive tissue prevented cardiac tamponade, elective surgical repair including PA reconstruction using a composite graft was successfully done several days after re...
متن کاملTwo stage hybrid approach for complex aortic coarctation repair
BACKGROUND Management of an adult patient with aortic coarctation and an associated cardiac pathology poses a great surgical challenge since there are no standard guidelines for the therapy of such complex pathology. Debate exists not only on which lesion should be corrected first, but also upon the type and timing of the procedure. Surgery can be one- or two-staged. Both of these strategies ar...
