  • Title: Covered stents for exclusion of iatrogenic common carotid artery-internal jugular vein fistula and brachiocephalic artery pseudoaneurysm.
    Author: Kooraki S, Grohmann J, Elshikh S, Urbach H, Meckel S.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2015 Jun 23; 2015():. PubMed ID: 26106173.
    Abstract:
    Covered stents have rarely been used in neuroendovascular procedures. We report the case of a 74-year-old woman with a complex iatrogenic vascular injury from attempted insertion of a hemodialysis catheter: concurrent brachiocephalic artery pseudoaneurysm and common carotid artery to internal jugular vein fistula. Both lesions were excluded successfully by using two balloon-expandable covered stents with a satisfactory short-term clinical and angiographic outcome.
