Thirty patients with traumatic arteriovenous fistula of the abdomen or extremity were examined by angiography. Seventeen patients underwent transcatheter embolization therapy. Of the 17 patients treated, 16 were successfully managed with arterial occlusion alone. In one renal arteriovenous-calyceal fistula, both arterial and venous transcatheter occlusions were necessary to control hemorrhage and close the fistula. All fistulas were successfully closed; there have been no recurrences (follow-up 6 months to 4 years). Transcatheter occlusion of traumatic arteriovenous fistulas is an effective means of therapy and may be considered a primary means of management.
