introduction: traumatic arteriovenous fistula (avf) called to an abnormal relationship between artery and vein which occurs in 10% of arterial traumas. if treatment of avf due to trauma delayed, different outcomes including heart failure, varices and varicose ulcers may accure. in case of chronic traumatic avf, open surgery may lead to remarkable outcomes, presence of many lateral veins and var...

Background: Spinal dural AVF is the most common type of spinal vascular malformation. However, presenting symptoms differ according to site of spinal involvement. This study described a case of arteriovenous malformation with paraparesis and incontinence. Case Presentation: Diagnosis of patient was confirmed by clinical and imaging examination using magnetic resonance image and ruling out ot...

introduction: a traumatic arteriovenous fistula (avf) after repetitive blunt trauma has not been described previously. in a 34-year-old male, the first reported case of such an injury after repetitive blunt trauma is described. case presentation: a 34-year-old gentleman presented with a non-healing ulcer near his medial malleolus. a bone scan was performed and then treated for presumed osteomye...

common autosomal-dominant genetic disorders with an incidence of approximately 1:3,500. Vascular abnormalities associated with NF-1 include stenotic or occlusive diseases, aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations and, rarely, arteriovenous fistula (AVF). Association of arteriovenous fistula with NF-1 is rare with a few cases of vertebral AVF having been reported (1-3). Endovascular occlusion of t...

Nongalenic arteriovenous fistula (NGAVF)also known as intracranial pial arteriovenous fistula (AVF), cerebral AVF, or brain AVF is a rare vascular malformation.There are few retrospective case series describing their epidemiological, clinical and radiographic characteristics as well as technical elements of treatment. Combined transarterial and transvenous embolization of a 4 month old female w...

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) dysfunction is one of the common obstacles in performing hemodialysis treatment. Acute and chronic thrombosis fistula, stenosis, hematomas are major causes dysfunction. Here, we present an unexpected complication midodrine use which caused AVF a female patient who was suffering from hemodialysis-related hypotension.

background: we aimed to analyze the effect of nursing strategies on patients with chronic renal failure (crf) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (mhd) treatment by puncturing on arteriovenous fistula (avf). methods: ninety-two patients with chronic renal failure undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (mhd) between jan 2014 and jan 2015 were included in the study (all undergoing avf, dialysis for ...

Iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is usually caused by inappropriate blood vessel cannulation during diagnostic and interventional procedures [1–3]. Arteriovenous fistulas occur in 1.0–1.5% of cases following procedures with femoral access (FA) [1, 4, 5]. Iatrogenic fistulas are unintentional connections between an artery and a vein due to the needle being advanced too deeply and reaching ...
