arteriovenous fistula

Post by Ikarus-70 »

Hi,

I have a diagnosis by Prof. Scholbach, Germany, saying that I have a pathologic connection between an artery and a vein, called av-fistula. It causes a pelvic blood congestion and is said to be the cause of my pain.
The fistula shall be closed by a minimum invasive therapy with a catheter next month.

Did anybody have the same treatment and what was the outcome?

av-fistula must not be mixed up with anal fistula, which is something completly different.

Greeting and thanks!

I don't remember hearing of this before. All the best with your surgery. Please let us know how it goes for you.

PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.
