title: Splenic arteriovenous fistula. Case report.
abstract: A case of splenic arteriovenous fistula is reported. Two types of this anomaly are known--the more common, true, arteriovenous fistula, and a fistula between the arterial system and the portal venous system. In the present case the second, very rare, type developed after a motorcar accident.
