Fifteen patients with an aneurysma spurium of the femoral artery due to coronary angiography had to be operated from March, 1988 till April, 1990. Contrary to our expectations we did not find a culmination of risk factors or relevant arteriosclerosis of the legs in these patients. It were the "young vessels" that were not able to compensate the defects from catheters and locks. In view of two cases of aneurysm rupture with hemorrhage, we consider the aneurysma spurium as an urgent indication for surgery. Only the complete exploration of the vessel permits an exact localization of the aneurysm and possible further defects and thus prevents the development of a secondary aneurysm.

Background: The efficacy of the second-generation cryoballoon (CB) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) has been demonstrated previously. Data on the efficacy of CB ablation in patients with persistent AF are sparse.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the 2-year success rate of pulmonary vein isolation in patients with persistent AF using the second-generation CB.

The increasing number of partial nephrectomies is accompanied by a higher incidence of rare iatrogenic vascular malformation. In the present case, an aneurysm with secondary arteriovenous (AV) fistula that developed after partial nephrectomy with a complicated course is described. The fistula was diagnosed during the sonographic follow-up in an asymptomatic patient.
