Case report: Emergency management of adjacent arterial injury during inferior vena cava angioplasty in a patient with Budd-Chiari syndrome
To guide early clinical recognition and management of intraprocedural complications during IVC angioplasty in Budd-Chiari syndrome patients.
Key Findings:
The patient experienced significant bleeding from the right common carotid artery due to a puncture injury during IVC angioplasty, necessitating emergency intervention.
Three covered stents were placed at the injury site, successfully controlling the bleeding.
Interpretation:
This case underscores the potential for serious complications during endovascular procedures and highlights the critical importance of a rapid multidisciplinary response.
Limitations:
The report is based on a single case study, which limits its generalizability.
There is a lack of extensive data on intraoperative complications in similar cases, which may affect the applicability of findings.
Conclusion:
This case emphasizes the necessity for heightened awareness and preparedness in managing arterial injuries during IVC angioplasty, with implications for improving patient safety.
