Title: Percutaneous fenestrated endovascular aortic graft treatment of aortocaval fistula with aortic pseudoaneurysms secondary to penetrating trauma. Author: Blumberg SN, Mussa FF, Maldonado TS. Journal: J Vasc Surg; 2017 Sep; 66(3):906-909. PubMed ID: 28366308. Abstract: Aortocaval fistula (ACF) is a lethal complication of aortic aneurysmal disease.
