The Journal of Vascular Access, 2014
Multiple superficial veins in different anatomical configurations exist in the elbow. The resulting variety of elbow arteriovenous fistulae (AVFs) is described in this paper. A classification of elbow AVF in nontransposed AVF, transposed AVF and multiple outflow AVF is proposed. The nontransposed brachiocephalic AVF has the lowest primary failure rate

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America
Dural arteriovenous fistulas are rare cerebrovascular lesions arising from abnormal connections between an artery and a vein. Though rare, high-grade aggressive lesions can cause hemorrhagic events and non-hemorrhagic neurologic deficits if left untreated.

Traumatic Arteriovenous Fistula
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1997Traumatic arteriovenous fistula in the head and neck may present a difficult problem in management. We present a surgical case of traumatic arteriovenous fistula between the right subclavian artery and internal jugular vein with false aneurysm formation.

Clinical Neuroradiology, 2009
Spontaneous dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal arteriovenous shunts within the dura mater of the sinuses. The exact etiology remains uncertain. Arterial feeder derive from the meningeal branches in the region. The clinical symptoms are highly dependent on the venous drainage.

Arteriovenous Fistula of the Lung
Radiology, 1959Pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas are anomalous connections between the arteries and veins of a portion of the pulmonary vascular bed. Since the first clinical diagnosis of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula by Smith and Horton in 1939 (13), 200 cases have been reported.

Occipital arteriovenous fistulae
Head & Neck Surgery, 1985AbstractOccipital arteriovenous fistulae may be congenital or traumatic. The distinguishing characteristics of each and diagnosis by dynamic computed tomographic (CT) scanning, obviating the need for angiography, is outlined and illustrated by a case report. The indications for surgery and operative approach are discussed.

Alternatives to arteriovenous fistulas
BMJ, 2014In their review, Siddiky and colleagues suggest that arteriovenous fistulas for haemodialysis “offer the best short, intermediate and long term options for renal replacement therapy.”1 Although they have many advantages, one of the few rigorous systematic reviews in vascular access emphasises the often overlooked complication of primary non-function ...

Traumatic arteriovenous fistulae
Injury, 1975Twenty-two cases of arteriovenous fistulae are reviewed retrospectively, with particular emphasis on their clinical presentation, physical signs, investigations and management. This review allows us to make certain conclusions for the future diagnosis and management of this condition.

Portosystemic arteriovenous fistulas
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1980The authors report the angiographic demonstration of arteriovenous fistulas in three patients. The fistula was believed to be spontaneous in one case, related to abdominal surgery and to abdominal trauma in the other two cases. The importance of angiography in the diagnosis and evaluation of this disease has been emphasized in the literature.

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Fistulas
Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1982During the 20-year-period 1959-78, 7 patients with pulmonary arteriovenous fistula were treated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery. There were 5 men and 2 women, with a mean age of 26 (14-47) years. Cyanosis with elevated haematocrit was present in 4, dyspnoea in 4, neurological signs in 3 (including one brain abscess and one ...
