“…It was first described by Syme in 1831 [1] and the first successful repair was done by Cooley et al in 1954 [2]. While majority of the cases of ACF are spontaneous, about 20% result from trauma or iatrogenic causes.…”

Spontaneous rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm into the inferior vena cava is rare and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. The clinical presentation can be variable and thus the diagnosis can be difficult. It can present with symptoms and signs of an abdominal emergency, venous hypertension, or systemic hypoperfusion. The traditional method of repair has been open surgery which is associated with high rate of complications. We report a case of aortocaval fistula (ACF) presenting with acute renal failure and heart failure, which was treated successfully with a novel, endovascular approach.

“…To achieve speedy control of bleeding from the ruptured aortic aneurysm several methods and techniques have been developed includ ing transthoracic clamping of the aorta [2] and insertion of Folley's balloon catheter through the wall of the aneurysm [3]. Fogar ty's balloon catheter or similar balloon de- signs have been introduced via the femoral [6] or brachial artery [5] to control leakage from the aneurysm.…”

A novel device was constructed and used to bypass a ruptured aortic aneurysm internally in vitro. Three human aortas each containing an abdominal aneurysm were used for the production of transparent silicons rubber replicas. A pulsatile flow within the range of physiological parameters was employed. The aortic aneurysms were ruptured iatrogenically. After positioning the device in the aneurysm, complete control of fluid leakage through the ruptures was achieved. Normal flow through aortic abdominal branches and distal to the aneuryms was maintained.

“…The "average patient" with an aneurysm of the ascending aorta died in 8 [27][28][29] Although the terms "dissection" and "rupturie" have been used interchangeably by some authors, the ternm "dissecting aneurysm" should be used only for those lesions in which the dissection involves the aortic wall, separating the intimia and adventitia usually in the plane of the media. Such lesions ordinarily start in the arch of the aorta and then progress peripherally.30 32 Infrequently they are self-limiting and may break back into the lumen of the vessel producing the so-called "double aorta.…”
