[Congenital arteriovenous fistula between the left subclavian artery and Pirogoff's venous junction. Surgical closure].
The authors report a case of arterio-venous fistula between the left sub-clavian artery and Pirogoff's venous junction. There was no past history of trauma, and no associated cardiovascular abnormality. The hemodynamic effects were moderate. Catheterisation and supra-sigmoid aortography permitted us to localise precisely the site of the fistula. Surgical cure was simple and carried out be cervico-sternotomy. This route of approach is broad and safe, providing satisfactory control of all the vascular structures.
