  • Title: Arteriovenous fistula of the scalp after hair transplantation treated by endovascular embolization.
    Author: Mathis JM, DeNardo AJ, Jensen ME, Lin KY, Dion JE.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1994 Dec; 33(6):633-7. PubMed ID: 7880056.
    Abstract:
    A 27-year-old patient acquired an arteriovenous fistula after punch graft hair transplantation. This lesion was treated by (percutaneous) puncture and injection of a liquid acrylic (N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate). The fistula was completely obliterated by the endovascular therapy without the need for additional vascular or cosmetic surgery. Endovascular therapy may be helpful as an adjunctive or primary treatment modality for iatrogenic or post-trauma fistulas.
