  • Title: An isolated aneurysm of the common iliac artery associated with an arterio-venous fistula: autotransfusion technique and postoperative hemodynamic monitoring--a case report.
    Author: Odagiri S, Tokunaga H, Ishikura Y, Yoshimatsu H.
    Journal: Jpn J Surg; 1988 Sep; 18(5):601-5. PubMed ID: 3230731.
    Abstract:
    Isolated aneurysms of the common iliac artery occur less frequently than abdominal aortic aneurysms. Moreover, the rupture of an isolated iliac aneurysm into a systemic vein is considered to be very rare. The case reported herein is of a patient with a left common iliac aneurysm which ruptured into the iliac vein, who was successfully treated surgically, using Doty's autotransfusion technique as a supportive measure. We describe our preoperative diagnosis, operative method, including the supportive measures, and the postoperative hemodynamic changes monitored by a Swan-Ganz catheter.
