OBJECTIVE: Presentations of a spontaneous ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula are considered a rare occurrence and warrant urgent intervention. They are usually a result following trauma, previous surgery or uncommonly from a ruptured aneurysm.
METHOD: We describe a case of a patient presenting with general malaise who examined to have a pulsatile abdominal mass with an associated bruit. He was found to have an ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula secondary to a ruptured iliac aneurysm that was treated successfully with open surgical repair.
RESULT: The patient was brought forward for open surgical repair due to haemodynamic instability as well as likely predicted difficulties with endovascular repair. Intra-operatively, his sigmoid colon was adherent to the aneurysm prompting the need for a Hartmann's procedure to allow for better visualisation of the aneurysm. A combination of external digital compression and Prolene suture was used to close the arteriovenous fistula.
CONCLUSION: Open surgical repair of an ilio-iliac arteriovenous fistula secondary to a ruptured iliac aneurysm appears to be safe and feasible approach. The advancement of medical technology does open up the possibility of an endovascular approach; however, in a small subset of patients, open repair would appear to be better.
