Venous Rupture Following Transcatheter Arterial Embolization for Inferior Mesenteric Type II Arteriovenous Malformation
We treated a 64-year-old man who had an inferior mesenteric arteriovenous malformation with multiple shunts. As multiple varicosities in the draining vein became enlarged, two dilated shunts on the superior rectal and sigmoid colon arteries were coil embolized. Two days after embolization, a varicos...

Sumario: | We treated a 64-year-old man who had an inferior mesenteric arteriovenous malformation with multiple shunts. As multiple varicosities in the draining vein became enlarged, two dilated shunts on the superior rectal and sigmoid colon arteries were coil embolized. Two days after embolization, a varicosity near the shunt (65 mm diameter) ruptured, causing intra-abdominal hemorrhage and surgical hemostasis. There were thrombi in the ruptured varicosity and its draining vein. The likely cause was a pressure increase in the incompletely thrombosed varicosity due to shunt blood flow from the remaining shunts after embolization. |
