    Summary

    A rare aorto-caval fistula associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm presents with severe symptoms. Urgent surgical repair was performed, but the patient unfortunately died post-operatively, highlighting the condition's severity.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Cardiology
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Aorto-caval fistula is an uncommon complication of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).
    • Symptoms are often nonspecific, but AAA rupture is a common presentation.
    • This condition requires prompt diagnosis and management due to its acute nature.

    Observation:

    • A case of a 78-year-old male with a large AAA and aorto-caval fistula is presented.
    • The patient experienced sudden abdominal pain, dyspnea, hypotension, and acute cor pulmonale.
    • Urgent surgical intervention included aneurysm resection, fistula repair, and aortic graft replacement.

    Findings:

    • The surgery required resuscitation and defibrillation due to cardiac arrest.
    • Post-operative complications included persistent consciousness disorder and myocardial ischemia.
