“…4 In most cases, the diagnosis is made preoperatively by aortic angiography and, uncommonly, by computed tomography with contrast or Doppler ultrasonography. 5,6 However, in up to 25%, the diagnosis is not made before surgery. 1 Surgery is the primary treatment for this condition, consisting of fistula closure and aneurysm repair, usually with an aortic or aortoiliac graft.…”

Arteriovenous fistula presents rarely with liver involvement. A 73-year-old man had new-onset ascites, hepatomegaly, and abnormal liver and renal function test results. An abdominal computed tomogram revealed a 7.6-cm internal iliac aneurysm but no other abnormality to account for his ascites. An aortogram demonstrated a 1.5-cm internal iliac arteriovenous fistula that subsequently was repaired, leading to resolution of his symptoms and laboratory abnormalities. High-output cardiac failure should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with new-onset massive ascites, hepatomegaly, and liver test abnormalities.

Spontaneous aortocaval fistula: CT findings with pathologic correlation

et al. 1995

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We present a case of aortocaval fistula (ACF) secondary to spontaneous rupture of an atherosclerotic infrarenal aortic aneurysm into the inferior vena cava that was initially diagnosed with computed tomography (CT). This is believed to be the first report of this condition with CT demonstration of the exact site of fistula and CT-pathologic correlation. We retrospectively reviewed the CT findings of another two cases of ACF and the previous literature.
