[Management of carotid-jugular fistula: Case report and review of the literature].

We report here the management of an acquired left carotid-jugular fistula in a 29-year-old man. This patient was referred to us for a ballistic wound of the left cheek evolving since one month with the diagnosis of a carotid pseudo-aneurysm discovered on Doppler ultrasound. The clinical presentation was marked by cervical thrill in favor of an arteriovenous fistula confirmed by computed tomography angiography.

Acute intestinal ischemia complicating mesenteric venous thrombosis.

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis is a rare condition but serious. We report here a new case in a 35-year-old man presenting with paroxysmal abdominal pain during 13 days. The diagnosis of superior mesenteric venous thrombosis was confirmed by CT angiography, and the patient was operated on the third day of a well-conducted medical treatment with intravenous heparinotherapy, in the presence of localized peritonitis.
