Abstract

This report demonstrates the use of a covered stent for the correction of a fistula from a saphenous vein graft to the right ventricle. The use of this stent resulted in complete obliteration of the fistulous tract and restoration of flow into the sequential limb of the graft. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2001;54:531–532.
