We describe the case of a 61-year-old male who had a critical stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Intravascular ultrasound demonstrated that the LAD was attached to a large anterior interventricular vein (AIV). After stenting, a fistula was noted between the LAD and AIV, which was successfully sealed by deploying a covered stent. To our knowledge, this is the first case of iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula between the LAD and AIV that occurred following stenting of the LAD.
我们描述了一名61岁男性患者的病例,该患者左前降支(LAD)存在严重狭窄。血管内超声显示LAD与一条粗大的前室间静脉(AIV)相连。支架置入后,发现LAD与AIV之间存在瘘管,通过置入覆膜支架成功封堵。据我们所知,这是首例LAD支架置入后发生的LAD与AIV之间的医源性动静脉瘘病例。
