Article Abstract

Clinically, a venous aneurysm is seen as a nonpulsatile mass with shrinkage upon elevation and enlargement with dependency. Confirmation of the diagnosis is best made by venography. In the case presented here of a rare aneurysm of the dorsal venous arch, the diagnosis of venous aneurysm was based on the histopathologic and intraoperative findings. If a venous aneurysm is symptomatic, it should be excised, with ligation of all feeder veins. In all cases, accurate preoperative diagnosis and evaluation allows for appropriate surgical planning.

Objective: Brachial artery aneurysms are rare entities that have typically been associated with trauma, infection, arterio-venous fistula creation or connective tissue disorders. These aneurysms are often asymptomatic, but they can also cause local tenderness or thrombo-embolic events. Due to the very low incidence of true brachial artery aneurysms, there are no standardized guidelines on their optimal management.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal failure remain critical global health challenges, with vascular access complications posing significant obstacles in hemodialysis management. This study investigates the early and late complications associated with vascular access procedures in a cohort of 1334 patients from Timiș County Emergency Clinical Hospital. Patients were categorized into early complications, occurring within 30 days postoperatively, and late complications, developing beyond this period.

Methods: Patients who received a kidney transplant between 2000 and 2015 and had a functional AVF that was later ligated or extirpated were included.
