  • Title: Ruptured iliac artery aneurysm presenting as acute right heart failure and cardiac arrest.
    Author: Loos MJ, Scheer M, van der Vliet JA, Warlé MC.
    Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2015 Feb; 29(2):363.e5-7. PubMed ID: 25463337.
    Abstract:
    Aortocaval fistula due to aneurysmal degradation can result in obscure clinical signs but with life-threatening sequelae. Our patient presented with multiple cardiac arrests because of sudden right heart decompensation after a ruptured iliac aneurysm into the adjacent iliac vein. He fully recovered after emergency open surgical repair. High awareness with subtle clinical signs is of great importance.
