Abstract
- Background: Superior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula is a rare and difficult complication after abdominal trauma. Utilizing comprehensive endovascular treatment represents an effective approach to managing this condition.<br />Case Presentation: We report a case involving a 53-year-old female with a history of trauma who presented with complaints of abdominal pain, malaise, and melena. A computed tomographic scan revealed the presence of a superior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula. The fistula was occluded using four Interlock detachable coils, and a covered stent was positioned over the arteriovenous fistula in the superior mesenteric artery. Following endovascular treatment, the patient's abdominal pain and melena symptoms disappeared.<br />Conclusion: Utilizing covered stents and Interlock detachable coils for endovascular treatment of a superior mesenteric arteriovenous fistula proves to be both feasible and highly effective.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.<br /> (© 2024 Wang, Zheng, Nie, Yang, Fan, Liu and Ye.)
