Abstract:
From May 2009 to February 2012, five patients with traumatic lower limb arteriovenous fistula were admitted in our department .Four patients underwent endovascular stent grafting , and one patient was given fistula indwelling , deep femoral artery-superficial femoral artery end to side anastomosis , and femoral artery-superficial femoral artery artificial vescular grafting .Four patients were cured, which were followed for 3, 5, 3, and 3 years, respectively, without recurrence.One patient with endovascular stent grafting failed to isolate the fistula effectively and a second stent grafting failed , too.Endovascular stent grafting is an effective method in the treatment of fistula, with less bleeding, small trauma, and rapid recovery.By using the technology of through the hillsto isolate limb fistula, the covered stent might not be released when the fistula is located at low position and at the same time the left iliac artery bifurcation angle is small .
