“…[4][5][6] Coil embolization techniques have been used instead of surgery to block these channels since 1993, and are generally effective. 4,7 In our case, there was the unusual involvement of a systemic-to-pulmonary collateral artery in the fistula. It arose from the subclavian artery, looped upwards, and then down into the chest cavity.…”

A young woman with surgically treated tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia, with multiple aorto-pulmonary collateral arteries, developed an arteriovenous fistula subsequent to transvenous insertion of an automatic implantable defibrillator via the left subclavian vein. The fistula extended between this vein and a systemic-to-pulmonary collateral artery arising from the subclavian artery. Unilateral peau d'orange, and painful congestion of the left arm and breast, ensued. These were cured by coil embolization of a fistula-related aneurysm.

Are Congenital Arteriovenous Malformations of Proximal Upper Extremity, More on the Right: Case Report and Literature Review

This is a case of a 9-year-old boy with a congenital arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the right upper extremity arising from the right subclavian artery. He underwent open surgical excision of the vascular tumor. Upon reviewing the literature, a high incidence of right-sided congenital AVM of the proximal upper extremity was identified. It has been suggested that this high incidence may be related to the complexity of the embryologic development of the right subclavian artery.
