Abstract:
A case of 65-year-old man of aorto-caval fistula induced by ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm is reported. The symptoms were hematuria and chest pain, and an emergent operation was performed. In the operation, Fogarty's balloon occlusion catheter was used to reduce bleeding from inferior vena cava, and to prevent pulmonary embolism. The fistula was 3cm in size, and abdominal aorta was replaced with a low porosity polyester Y-graft. The symptoms of pulmonary congestion and hematuria were improved after operation. The balloon occlusion catheter was effective for reducing bleeding from IVC, and prevention from pulmonary embolism after operation.
