Ultrasound Guided Non Surgical Closure of Post Angiographic Femoral Arteriovenous Fistula (AVF) and Pseudoaneurysm (PSA)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Local complications of femoral arterial catheterization like hematomas, pseudoaneurysm (PSA) and arteriovenous fistula (AVF) are increasing in incidence due to the large number of patients undergoing diagnostic and therapeutic angiographic procedures through this route [1 3] (see figure 1). A PSA refers to a confined collection of thrombus and blood associated with tear of one or more layers of an arterial wall [4]. An iatrogenic AVF occurs when an arterial puncture inadvertently extends to involve an adjacent vein leading to a communication between the two. Color flow Doppler ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for the diagnosis and assessment of a PSA, with a high sensitivity and specificity [5].

Arteriovenous fistula after femoral artery puncture leading to pulmonary edema: the role of ultrasonography.
Local complications of arterial puncture include hematoma, pseudoaneurysm and formation of arteriovenous fistula (AVF). The latter could cause ischemia of the particular extremity or can be hemodynamically significant especially in patients suffering from congestive heart failure. We report a case of femoro-femoral AVF after thin needle arterial p...

Pseudoaneurysms (PsA) and arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) of the thyrocervical trunk and its branches are rare complications of traumatic or iatrogenic arterial injuries. Most such injuries are iatrogenic and are associated with central venous catheterization. Historically, thyrocervical trunk PsA and AVF have been managed with open surgical repair; however, multiple treatment modalities are now a...
متن کاملTraumatic pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula detected by bedside ultrasound.
BACKGROUND The case of late presentation of a pseudoaneurysm and an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) of the common femoral artery and vein secondary to penetrating trauma is reported. Traumatic AVF and pseudoaneurysm may be present within a variety of clinical conditions, which sometimes makes it difficult to detect them clinically. Undiagnosed AVF can lead to clinical manifestations mostly secondar...
متن کاملPercutaneous Treatment of Iatrogenic Femoral Artery Access Complications
Percutaneous minimal invasive treatment of iatrogenic femoral artery access complications (IFAACs) is considered as a first choice treatment in selected cases. Percutaneous procedures are performed under local anaesthesia, are better tolerated by the patient, and are associated with a shorter hospitalisation time, compared to open surgery. Bleeding complications can be insidious and life-threat...
متن کاملManagement of Ilio-Femoral Deep Vein Thrombosis: A Hybrid Approach
Despite recent innovations in clot lysis technology, management of acute ilio-femoral Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) remains a challenge worldwide. We revisit the work of a previous generation of vascular surgeons who created a temporary Arteriovenous Fistula (AVF) in combination with a surgical thrombectomy, to maximize blood flow through the newly revascularized vessel. Since this time, surgical ...
