    Author: Fotso A, Aubert D, Saltoun K, Galli G, Bonneville JF, Bracard S.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Mar; 41(3):e21-3. PubMed ID: 16516609.
    Abstract:
    Congenital paraspinal arteriovenous fistulae are rare and usually diagnosed after neurologic or cardiovascular manifestations. They may be discovered unexpectedly in children during clinical examination, which reveals the presence of a vascular murmur. The association with multicystic kidney is exceptional. We report 1 case with thoracic localization of a congenital paraspinal arteriovenous fistula associated with a multicystic kidney in a 3-year-old boy who was treated by endovascular embolization.
