Purpose: To describe successful endovascular repair of a recurrent vertebral arteriovenous fistula (AVF) after surgical correction. Case Report: A 42-year-old woman presented with recurrent dizziness, nausea, and headaches. A loud bruit in the right neck was present. Central venous catheter insertion had been done 1 year previously, creating an angiographically documented right-sided vertebral AVF that was successfully excluded by a surgical procedure. Four weeks later, the AVF reappeared. Successful endovascular repair with a self-expanding stent-graft was performed. Follow-up over 12 months was uneventful, with a patent vertebral artery and no recurrence of symptoms. Conclusions: Endovascular stent-graft repair is feasible and offers a therapeutic alternative in the treatment of vertebral AVF, in particular for recurrence after initial surgery. This minimally invasive method may become the treatment of choice in the management of such lesions, preserving patency of the vertebral artery.

Endovascular Stent Graft Repair

Introduction. An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein which may result from traumatic injury or may occur as congenital abnormality. Stent graft repair through arteriovenous fistula could lead to complications. Case report. Endovascular stent graft repair in a 23-year-old patient with posttraumatic superficial femoral arteriovenous fistula was performed to cover a fistula. During the procedure the device migrated through the fistula into the femoral vein. Due to eventual risk of migration to the heart, a prompt decision was made to fix the stent graft with three puncture needles in the common femoral vein region under fluoroscopy guidance. The vascular surgeon was called to perform open surgery. Conclusions. The presented way of treating this rare complication in an extreme and uncommon situation is very efficient, safe and inexpensive.

Purpose: To describe the successful endovascular treatment of a popliteal arteriovenous fistula with a stent-graft. Case Report: A 54-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a distal popliteal arteriovenous fistula following an arthroscopic meniscectomy 6 years earlier. Three surgical attempts to close the fistula were undertaken, but the fistula recurred. He now presented with symptoms of progressive venous hypertension with claudication, swelling of the leg, and ulceration at the ankle. The fistula was closed with a stent-graft deployed percutaneously. At 18 months, the patient is doing well; duplex evaluation has documented the patency of the popliteal artery and the stent-graft. Conclusions: Endovascular treatment of a popliteal arteriovenous fistula is an alternative to open surgical reconstruction. In this situation, after multiple failed surgical closures and in a leg with extensive venous hypertension, it may be the best treatment option.

Purpose: To describe an apparently unreported endovascular means of treating a vertebral arteriovenous fistula (AVF) using a small-caliber stent-graft to permanently reconstruct the involved vessels. Case Report: A 13-year-old girl presented with tinnitus caused by a high-flow AVF between the right extracranial vertebral artery and deep jugular vein arising from repeated internal jugular vein catheterization. A 4-mm-diameter balloon-expandable Jostent coronary stent-graft was placed in the vertebral artery via a percutaneous femoral access, with immediate and complete obliteration of the AVF and resolution of the tinnitus. Follow-up duplex ultrasonography at 15 months demonstrated patency and luminal integrity of the vertebral artery. Conclusions: Vertebrojugular AVFs are rare and usually treated with transcatheter embolization techniques, but percutaneous repair using a small-caliber stent-graft appears feasible. This minimally invasive treatment might become the method of choice for AVFs in other small-bore vessels.
