Review
Intimal hyperplasia (IH), a crucial histopathological injury, forms the basis of vascular stenosis and thrombogenesis. In addition, it is common in maladies such as stenosis at the anastomosis of arteriovenous fistula and restenosis after angioplasty. Various cellular and noncellular components play critical parts in the advancement of IH. This article reviews the distinctive components of IH, such as endothelial dysfunction, multiplication, and movement of vascular smooth muscle cells. Finally, in addition to synthesis of large amounts of extracellular matrix and inflammatory responses, which have frequently been studied in recent years, we offer a premise for clinical treatment with vascular smooth muscle cells.

Review
Splenic arteriovenous fistulas are uncommonly encountered, yet they can invoke serious pathophysiological consequences. Four patients treated for splenic fistulas at our institution over the last decade were combined with all previous case reports to produce the most extensive review yet reported, totalling 91 patients. Common etiologies included atherosclerotic aneurysm rupture (44%), congenital malformation (20%), and prior splenectomy (13%). The most frequent manifestation was gastrointestinal hemorrhage (48%), which was most prevalent with congenital fistulas (61% p < 0.05) or fistulas located proximally (54%, p < 0.005). Chronic portal hypertension that was usually characterized by preservation of hepatic function developed in 65%. Management included splenectomy (70%), fistula excision (59%), and occasionally required distal pancreatectomy (10%). Persistent portal hypertension necessitated operative portosystemic shunting in select cases (9%), with an overall 30 day operative mortality of 9%. While percutaneous embolization provided an additional therapeutic option in 4%, optimal management continues to include operative intervention.

Review
Dural arteriovenous fistulae (dAVFs) are diverse, complex lesions that share the common feature of arteriovenous shunting without an intervening nidus. In this chapter, the ensuing discussion is organized by dAVF location, followed by further consideration of less common, distinct types of dAVFs-carotid cavernous fistulae, pial arteriovenous fistulae, and vein of Galen malformations. For each lesion type, epidemiology, clinical presentation, imaging findings, classification considerations, and treatment options are discussed.
