A case of intractable upper gastrointestinal-hemorrhage was reported in a patient with portal hypertension caused by an arterioportal fistula (APF), namely, celiac axis-portal vein arteriovenous fistula. Portal hypertension caused by extrahepatic-APFs is extremely rare. Trauma, malignancy, and hereditary causes are the common etiology of APFs; but were absent in our patient. Our patient represents an unusual case of unexplained APF who presented with portal hypertension and was successfully managed through endovascular aortic repair.
报告了一例患有由动门静脉瘘(APF)引起的门静脉高压的患者出现顽固性上消化道出血的病例,即腹腔干-门静脉动静脉瘘。肝外动门静脉瘘引起的门静脉高压极为罕见。创伤、恶性肿瘤和遗传因素是动门静脉瘘的常见病因;但在我们的患者中并不存在。我们的患者是一例不明原因动门静脉瘘的特殊病例,表现为门静脉高压,并通过血管内主动脉修复成功治疗。
