A rare asymptomatic arteriovenous fistula between right renal artery and inferior vena cava following penetrating trauma: A Case report

Abstract

A 20-year-old male patient was admitted to our outpatients clinics due to penetrating injury in the right lumbosacral region, occurred four months ago. In his routine examination, a continuous murmur was heard on the right lumbar region and angiographic examination was done. The angiography showed an arteriovenous (A-V) fistula between the right renal artery (RRA) and inferior vena cava (IVC). After this diagnosis, primer closure of the fistula was done surgically. After surgical repair, the murmur was lost and closure of the fistula was shown by postoperative angiography.
