Core Tip |
Complex congenital intrahepatic arterioportal fistula (IAPF) is a rare vascular malformation causing severe portal hypertension, gastrointestinal hemorrhage and ascites in infants, for whom the therapeutic approach is challenging due to the children’s small size and their poor clinical condition. Radiological embolization often isn’t effective for complex lesions due to impossibility to embolize small afferent arterial branches, while surgical treatments (liver resection or liver transplantation) are associated with severe morbidity and mortality. We aimed to present a novel endovascular-surgical hybrid approach in an infant with complex congenital IAFP, providing a literature review on the treatment options and outcomes for congenital IAFP. |
