An iliac arteriovenous fistula may rarely complicate lumbar laminectomy, particularly at the L4-L5 level. We present such a complication in a 45-year-old man who presented in our institution with a postlaminectomy iliac arteriovenous fistula and severe congestive heart failure. Repair of the fistulous orifice and tubular reconstruction of the iliac artery were successfully performed.

Abstract
An iliac arteriovenous fistula may rarely complicate lumbar laminectomy, particularly at the L4-L5 level. We present such a complication in a 45-year-old man who presented in our institution with a postlaminectomy iliac arteriovenous fistula and severe congestive heart failure. Repair of the fistulous orifice and tubular reconstruction of the iliac artery were successfully performed.File allegati a questo prodotto
