Title: Thoracic aortocaval fistula due to gunshot wound. Author: Semiz E, Sancaktar O, Yalçinkaya S, Demircan A, Değer N. Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1996 Oct; 44(5):261-3. PubMed ID: 8948556. Abstract: This article presents a patient with an arteriovenous fistula between the brachiocephalic trunk and superior vena cava, a site not otherwise reported in the literature so far. The fistula was presumably the result of an accidental gunshot wound 8 years previously. Following the diagnosis, the fistula was repaired without any complication and the patient's symptoms disappeared.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
