The Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery

Abstract

Two atypical patients with spontaneous aortocaval fistulae with a successful outcome, are presented. Lack of physician awareness is considered an important contributor to diagnostic delay. A finding at cardiac catheterization is described. Review of the English literature shows that satisfactory results in the management of this condition can now be expected.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.
