RESUMEN
A splenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is an uncommon splenic vascular disease which can be congenital or acquired. A 40yr old woman, without any history of chronic liver disease, presented with non-specific pain abdomen, underwent contrast-enhanced CT and was diagnosed to have a splenic AVF with multiple intervening venous aneurysms and early filling of the portal vein. The vascular abnormality was successfully treated with a combined percutaneous glue embolisation and endovascular balloon-assisted coil embolisation. Neither recurrence nor other complications were observed in the patient during the follow-up after 6 months.
