Traumatic aortic dissection and coronary fistula treated with transcatheter management

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    An adolescent male presented with a dissection of the thoracic aorta and a left anterior descending coronary artery to right ventricular fistula following a road traffic accident. Authors report the management of this patient using a transcatheter approach for both these arterial issues, with stenting to the thoracic aorta and coil embolization of the coronary artery to right ventricular fistula as a staged procedure, along with a brief review of the literature on traumatic arterial injuries. © 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
