Aortobronchial fistula (ABF) is a rare and late complication of cardiac surgery. If untreated, mortality rate is approximately 100% secondary to exsanguinations haemoptysis. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for successful management. Open surgical repair is associated with high morbidity and mortality rate, ranging from 25% to 41%. Endovascular treatments of ABF is a less invasive treatment modality and have become an important alternative to open surgical intervention in aortic pathologies. We present a case of ABF that successfully is managed by endovascular approach.
主动脉支气管瘘(ABF)是心脏手术罕见的晚期并发症。若不治疗,因咯血导致的失血性死亡死亡率约为100%。早期诊断和治疗对于成功治疗至关重要。开放手术修复的发病率和死亡率较高,范围在25%至41%之间。ABF的血管内治疗是一种侵入性较小的治疗方式,已成为主动脉病变开放手术干预的重要替代方法。我们报告一例通过血管内方法成功治疗的ABF病例。
