Intrarenal arteriovenous fistulas: transcatheter steel coil occlusion. 1978

S Wallace, and D E Schwarten, and D C Smith, and L P Gerson, and L J Davis

Intrarenal arteriovenous fistulas are either congenital (cirsoid), acquired or idiopathic. Transcatheter occlusion of these fistulas was accomplished using the Gianturco stainless steel coil. The anatomical configuration of the feeding and draining vessels dictated the technical approach. There was considerable conservation of renal tissue as the result of this non-surgical therapeutic alternative.

D000783 Aneurysm Pathological outpouching or sac-like dilatation in the wall of any blood vessel (ARTERIES or VEINS) or the heart (HEART ANEURYSM). It indicates a thin and weakened area in the wall which may later rupture. Aneurysms are classified by location, etiology, or other characteristics.

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.
