“…It can be performed through a transarterial, transvenous, or combined approach, and typically involves covered stents or coil embolization for fistula closure (Shintani et al, 2011;Wu et al, 2008;Kato et al, 1993;An et al, 2013;Zhao et al, 2018;Landi et al, 2015;Jargiełło et al, 2019;Zhao et al, 2014;Farshidmehr et al, 2019;Howley et al, 2019;Yamaguchi et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2016). Vascular plugs, as described in the present case, also appear to be an effective option, with potentially less risk for migration into the portal venous system than coils (Rimon et al, 2008;Huang et al, 2018). Other potential complications of endovascular SMAVF closure are portal vein thrombosis and mesenteric ischemia (Landi et al, 2015).…”
