Peripheral Arteriovascular Disease

Carotid-jugular fistulae are rare, but habitually cause morbidity and mortality. They are often linked with penetrating trauma, primarily caused by gunshots. This report describes the case of a patient who was the victim of a gunshot wound to the left cervical area, provoking a carotid-jugular arteriovenous fistula and occlusion of the common carotid artery. The fistula was corrected by ligature of the internal jugular vein and arteriorrhaphy of the left common carotid artery with a bovine pericardium patch.

Correction of carotid-jugular traumatic fistula using a bovine pericardial patch

Objective: To evaluate the surgical methods and the outcome of management for traumatic arterial aneurysm (TAA) and traumatic arterioveneus fistula (TAVF)
Methods: A total of 121 patients with TAA or TAVF were treated by surgery Clinical, operative and postoperative data were collected and analyzed retrospectively
Results: The surgical techniques included
aneurysmectomy and arterial end-to-end anastomosis or vascular grafting or artery ligation, aneurysm ligation and bypass, vascular repair, fistula excision and vascular ligation or vascular grafting or repair and so on One patient died (083%) The follow-up rates of TAA and TAVF were 657% and 60% respectively
Conclusions: Complicated TAA and TAVF in different sites should be treated with different methods
