Successful management of traumatic mesenteric arteriovenous fistula after failure of steel coil embolization: case report.
Arteriovenous fistulas affecting the mesenteric circulation are rare. To our knowledge, this is the first case report in which a large fistula was initially treated by steel coil embolization and, after failure of this procedure, subsequently surgically corrected. A case is reported and the literature reviewed.
