Introduction: Arteriovenous fistula after radical prostatectomy is very uncommon. We report a rare case of pseudoaneurysm associated with arteriovenous fistula following robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.
We report a rare case of pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) with cerebellar abscess. The patient was 38-year-old woman who admitted to the local hospital for headache and fever. Subsequently, her condition became critical with consciousness disturbance, and hypoxemia. Brain computed
Background: Brain abscesses, a severe infectious disease of the CNS, are usually caused by a variety of different pathogens, which include Streptococcus intermedius (S. intermedius). Pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas (PAVFs), characterized by abnormal direct
Background: A rare case of cerebral abscess concurrent with pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF), hyperhemoglobinemia, and hypoxemia was reported.
Case presentation: A
We present the case and radiologic images of a 64-year-old man who presented with gross hematuria and fever 2 months after undergoing retroperitoneal partial nephrectomy for a 4.7 × 4.6 cm papillary renal cell carcinoma. Angio-TC demonstrated an aneurysmatic dilatation of the anterior inferior
A patient with a renal arteriovenous fistula is described. She was though to have valvular aortic stenosis because of a history of rheumatic fever, symptoms of congestive heart failure and syncope, and the presence of a harsh systolic murmur with a thrill in the aortic area. Cardiac catheterization
We report a case of renal arteriovenous fistula, which was found during treatment for pyelonephritis. A 61-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of lumbar backache and infectious fever. The computed tomographic scan showed right hydronephrosis and perinephritis. We treated her
Arteriovenous fistula between common iliac vessels is uncommon. Most of the reported cases are secondary to lumbar disc surgery. Mycotic aneurysm of iliac vessels caused by bacterial infection is even rarer. We describe the case of a 63 year old man with dyspnea, abdominal pain, bipedal edema,
Arteriovenous fistula was diagnosed in a 6-year-old domestic shorthair cat 15 weeks after incurring a bite wound of the midportion of the right antebrachium. Arteriovenous shunting was confirmed by use of Doppler ultrasonography and nonselective fluoroscopic subtraction angiography Prior to
A case of renal arteriovenous fistula (A-V fistula) treated by transcatheter embolization using absolute ethanol is reported. The catheter was superselectively placed in the proximal renal artery supplying cirsoid vessels and 15 ml of absolute ethanol was injected into the renal artery at a rate of
This is a case report of a 30-year-old female patient with a splenic arteriovenous fistula of rare, atypical clinical course. The patient was admitted to the hospital due to strong abdominal pains and fever. 13 years earlier, the patient underwent splenectomy due to post-traumatic rupture of the
Brain abscess associated with an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is sometimes difficult to diagnose and tends to recur. We report a case of recurrent brain abscess due to a pulmonary AVF (PAVF). A 69-year-old woman with a mass in the left cerebral peduncle had taken a progressively worse and shown
A 58-year-old man with a history of cerebral infarction and bleeding due to duodenal ulcer was admitted with fever and arthralgia. Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) was isolated from his peripheral blood. Bacteremia with MSSA was diagnosed, and antibiotic therapy was started.
Vascular access infection is a frequent problem in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Infection of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is less common than dialysis catheter-associated infection. Previous case reports described endophthalmitis secondary to hemodialysis catheter-related infection,
