title: Glue Embolization of a Blunt Traumatic Hepatic Arteriovenous Fistula under Inflow and Outflow Control.
abstract: We report on a rare case of blunt traumatic hepatic arteriovenous fistula arising from a pseudoaneurysm in a 35-year-old woman. Transarterial embolization was performed with n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate, under inflow control with loose coil packing within the pseudoaneurysm and outflow control by balloon occlusion of the hepatic vein. A promising therapeutic outcome was achieved without any serious adverse events. Thus, the combination of these techniques to control inflow and outflow was successfully used to treat this rare hepatic vascular injury.
