Congenital arteriovenous fistula complicated by arteriovenous aneurysm is very rare. We report a case of a 23-year-old man diagnosed with an asymptomatic congenital aorto-azygous fistula complicated by an arteriovenous aneurysm. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) was successfully performed to resect the abnormal feeding artery and ligate the draining azygos vein. There were no postoperative complications, and late follow-up showed a satisfactory outcome. Our experience indicates that VATS is a safe and appropriate option to treat this kind of vascular malformation.
先天性动静脉瘘合并动静脉瘤非常罕见。我们报告一例23岁男性患者,诊断为无症状先天性主动脉-奇静脉瘘合并动静脉瘤。通过电视辅助胸腔镜手术(VATS)成功切除异常供血动脉并结扎引流的奇静脉。术后无并发症,后期随访结果满意。我们的经验表明,VATS是治疗这类血管畸形的一种安全且合适的选择。
