[Arterial aneurysm of the liver with arterio-portal fistula: treatment using embolization]. 1984

U A Baumann, and U Tillmann, and J Frei, and H F Fehr

Aneurysms of the hepatic artery are rare and may present multiform clinical pictures. Prompt diagnosis is important because life threatening complications can be treated by relatively simple measures. A case of posttraumatic intrahepatic aneurysm of the hepatic artery with arterioportal fistula and successful transcatheter embolisation is reported. The present state of the art is outlined and indications for diagnosis and therapy are presented.

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.
