An 8-year-old, castrated male Basset Hound was evaluated for congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation. Echocardiography and angiography demonstrated a left-to-right shunting aorticopulmonary fistula. Coil embolization of the fistula was initially successful in reducing the volume of blood flow through the vascular network. The dog was medically managed for congestive heart failure until it was euthanized 6 months after initial presentation. The physiology and treatment of centrally located arteriovenous fistulae are discussed.
一只8岁去势雄性巴吉度猎犬因充血性心力衰竭和心房颤动接受评估。超声心动图和血管造影显示存在左向右分流的主肺动脉瘘。瘘管的弹簧圈栓塞最初成功减少了通过血管网络的血流量。这只狗接受了充血性心力衰竭的药物治疗,直到初次就诊6个月后实施安乐死。本文讨论了位于中心部位的动静脉瘘的生理机制和治疗方法。
