A 10-year experience and results of combined methods of surgical treatment of arterio-venous fistulas of peripheral vessels in 50 patients were analyzed. The patients were systematized on the basis of existing classifications, clinical manifestations of the disease, methods of invasive (ultrasound dopplerography and duplex scanning) and invasive (angiography) examinations. According to many authors no one of conventional methods of surgical treatment of arterio-venous fistulas which are used singly can be effective and must not be recommended as the most optimal. Stepwise employing of traditional operations and endovascular techniques are the main conditions for preventive measures of ischemic disorders in the limbs.

Complications on the feeding artery after an arterio-venous fistula closure in patients after kidney transplantation - a national cohort study.
Clin Kidney J
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Background: Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) in kidney transplant recipients are sometimes closed, either as a policy or due to complications. We collected data on the incidence of complications after AVF closure in a national cohort of transplanted patients.
Methods: Patients who received a kidney transplant between 2000 and 2015 and had a functional AVF that was later ligated or extirpated were included.
Six-Month Outcomes from the Prospective, Multi-Center, Non-Randomized Clinical Study of the COVERA™ Arterio VeNous (AV) Stent Graft in the Treatment of Stenosis in the VEnous OutfloW of AV Fistula Access Circuits (AVeNEW PAS).

Purpose: The AVeNEW Post-Approval Study (AVeNEW PAS) follows upon results from the AVeNEW IDE clinical trial and was designed to provide additional clinical evidence of safety and effectiveness using the Covera™ Vascular Covered Stent to treat arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenoses in a real-world hemodialysis patient population.
Materials And Methods: One hundred AVF patients were prospectively enrolled at 11 clinical trial sites in the USA and treated with the covered stent after angioplasty of a clinically significant target stenosis. The primary safety outcome was freedom from any adverse event that suggests the involvement of the AV access circuit evaluated at 30 days.
Surgical Obliteration of a Filum Terminale Arteriovenous Fistula Following Aborted Endovascular Embolization: Illustrative Case Report and Literature Review.

Arteriovenous fistulas of the filum terminale are rare vascular malformations that predominantly affect males and can present with various neurological symptoms. In this study, we indexed previously published cases of filum terminale arteriovenous fistulas demonstrating that endovascular and microsurgical management are both proven to be appropriate and successful treatment modalities with low complication rates. Endovascular treatment is far less invasive; however, it is associated with higher failure rates, which need to be managed surgically.

Division of Thoracic, Cardiac and Vascular Surgery, Department of Surgery, College of Medicine and Philippine General Hospital, University of the Philippines Manila.
Objective: To describe the treatment outcomes of patients who underwent Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) for Central Vein Occlusive Disease (CVOD) in end-stage kidney disease and determine the association between patient profile and treatment outcomes.
Methods: A single-institution, retrospective review of patients aged 18 and above with end-stage kidney disease who underwent PTA for CVOD in the University of the Philippines - Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2022, was performed. These patients' demographic and clinical profiles were evaluated using means, frequencies, and percentages.
Low-and intermediate-grade lateral sinus dural arterio venous fistulas: Factors affecting the outcome of endo vascular treatment over 18-year experience in a high-volume neurovascular center.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol
December 2024
Department of Neurovascular Center, Changhai Hospital, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, China.
Background And Purpose: Lateral sinus dural arteriovenous fistulas (LS-DAVFs) carry a higher rate of recurrence after endovascular treatment (EVT). Our objective was to investigate the independent predictors of recurrence and unfavorable functional outcome of low-and intermediate-grade LS-DAVFs after EVT.
Materials And Methods: Retrospectively reviewed our database of prospectively collected information for all patients with low and intermediate-grade LS-DAVFs that underwent EVT from May 2004 to December 2021.
