Traumatic mesenteric arterioportal fistulas (APF) are rare but serious and life-threatening. This article reports the case of a 24-year-old female who suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen and subsequently developed a superior mesenteric artery (SMA) pseudoaneurysm and APF, which caused secondary right heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. The patient underwent a successful endovascular stent-graft exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm/APF. The patient was asymptomatic 18 months post procedure and leading an active life with a normal arterial flow in the SMA confirmed by duplex ultrasonography.

D006333 Heart Failure A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.

D001164 Arteriovenous Fistula An abnormal direct communication between an artery and a vein without passing through the CAPILLARIES. An A-V fistula usually leads to the formation of a dilated sac-like connection, arteriovenous aneurysm. The locations and size of the shunts determine the degree of effects on the cardiovascular functions such as BLOOD PRESSURE and HEART RATE.
