RESUMEN

CASE: A 61-year-old male patient presented with back pain and bilateral lower limb radicular pain. A Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan of the lumbar spine was suggestive of engorged epidural veins behind the L5 vertebral body causing severe cauda equina compression. A venous Doppler scan demonstrated thrombosis of the inferior vena cava, which was identified as the primary pathology. He was started on anticoagulation, after which his radicular symptoms improved significantly. The patient was asymptomatic at the time of final follow-up at 1 year. CONCLUSION: Epidural varices can rarely present with lumbar radiculopathy mimicking an acute disk prolapse clinically and radiologically. Careful interpretation of the MRI scan will ensure proper diagnosis and avoid unnecessary surgery.

RESUMEN

Hepatic arterioportal fistulae are frequent vascular complications due to neoplasm, trauma and iatrogenic injury. On the other hand, fistulae between the hepatic arteries and hepatic veins (arteriohepatic venous fistula) are rare. We report the case of a 45-year-old male who suffered from a blunt abdominal trauma with abdominal distension. Initial cross-sectional imaging revealed laceration of the right lobe of liver with an arteriovenous fistula and hemoperitoneum. The diagnosis of arteriohepatic venous fistulae was confirmed on digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and treated angiographically with superselective coil embolization. Post-embolization angiogram showed complete occlusion of arteriovenous fistulae. We emphasis on the management part of the fistulae and endovascular treatment.
