Arterioenteric fistulas (AEFs) are a rare disease. They are a communication between a major artery and digestive tract. We present a patient who, after suffering a gunshot wound to the abdomen, underwent an exploratory laparotomy with damage control surgery, who later presented with hematemesis and melena. Studies were performed where an aneursyma of the right renal artery and gastrointestinal bleeding due to primary arterioenteric fistula were evidenced, which is successfully treated by angioembolization. Endovascular therapy for the treatment of AEF is a useful resource in patients with the previous abdominal surgeries that could make their management more difficult. |
