AbstractIndividuals with trisomy 21 have an 80% risk reduction of vascular anomalies compared with general population. However, an association of trisomy 21 and portal vascular and arteriovenous anomalies has been defined in the literature. The primary hemodynamic abnormality in portal hypertension is increased resistance to portal blood flow. In various case reports in adults and pediatric age group patients, transarterial coil embolization of hepatoportal fistula was described. One of the authors of this article has previously reported successful treatment of congenital arterioportal fistula (APF) with percutaneous transhepatic liquid embolization in a patient who previously had transarterial coil embolization. To date, eight patients with trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) and congenital portosystemic shunts were reported of which four were treated with embolization. Here, we describe a 3-month-old infant with trisomy 21 and intrahepatic APF associated with extrahepatic portal hypertension and massive ascites. In the current report, a rare case of a patient with a diagnosis of trisomy 21 is discussed who was attempted to be treated with transarterial coil embolization and percutaneous transhepatic liquid embolization of the congenital APF in a single session.

Arterioportal fistulas are a rare complication of abdominal interventions. They can remain asymptomatic for a long time and manifest with symptoms of portal hypertension. We present the case of a 65-year-old man admitted to the emergency room with increasing fatigue and melena. He had a history of partial gastrectomy with Billroth II reconstruction 40 years earlier for peptic ulcer perforation. On physical examination, he was pale and presented a machinery-type murmur in the epigastric area. Blood tests revealed iron deficiency anaemia of 5.6 g/dL. During hospitalisation, he required several blood transfusions and maintained melenas. An abdominal CT angiography showed a fusiform aneurysm of the left gastric artery draining to the venous portal-splenic confluent. He was successfully treated with transarterial coil embolisation of the left gastric artery aneurysm. The correct diagnosis of arterioportal fistulas can be very challenging, whereas the standard treatment with coil embolisation offers a low morbidity resolution of symptoms.

Abstract. The treatment of endoleaks type II had to be adapted to the anatomy of each individual patient. The laser-assisted perforation of the prosthesis can be an easier method to reach the aneurysm sac directly than using transarterial or translumbar approaches.
