Abstract:
Two patients with an aorto-iliac arteriovenous fistula as a complication of abdominal aortic aneurysms were presented. Both patients showed pulsating abdominal mass, and swelling of unilateral leg. The fistula was preoperatively diagnosed in one and in another it was suspected intraoperatively by careful palpation of continuous thrill on the aneurysm. Successful surgical management was accomplished in both patients. Awareness of this clinical entities is necessary to manage this rare complication in abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery.
