چکیده
BACKGROUND Arteriovenous fistula is an uncommon complication of central venous catheterization that often requires invasive repair. CASE REPORT We report the case of an arteriovenous fistula that presented as ongoing pain following removal of a tunneled central venous catheter. The fistula resolved spontaneously following a period of compression and observation. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the etiology of this uncommon complication as well as suggesting a role for conservative management.
