Uretero-iliac artery fistulae represent a urological emergency with considerable mortality. We present 2 cases of a uretero-iliac artery fistula. Nowadays, minimally-invasive endovascular therapy seems to be the treatment of choice. For an optimal outcome, a multidisciplinary team with imminent availability of radiology, vascular surgery, urology and anaesthesia is required.

A Prospective Comparison of Outcomes of Brachiocephalic Versus Brachiobasilic Fistulas for Hemodialysis.
Indian J Nephrol
July 2024
Department of Vascular Surgery, Christian Medical College Vellore, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Background: Brachiocephalic fistula (BCF) and brachiobasilic fistula (BBF) are autogenous fistulas created in the arm for hemodialysis access. However, despite the differences in anatomy and surgical technique, the existing literature shows no significant statistical difference between the maturation, patency, or complications. We analyzed the outcomes of these two types of arteriovenous fistulas in our subgroup of the Indian population.

The Trauma and Neuroscience Institutes, St. John's Hospital and Medical Center, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Background: Direct carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCFs) are relatively rare but dangerous complications of penetrating traumatic brain injury or maxillofacial trauma. A variety of clinical signs have been described, including ophthalmological and neurological ones. In some cases, severely altered cerebral blood flow can present as massive life-threatening bleeding through the nose, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and/or intraparenchymal hemorrhage.

Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, Vardhman Mahavir Medical College and Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, India.
Introduction: Arteriovenous (AV) fistula creation is the most common surgical procedure for providing vascular access for haemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The functioning of fistula dictates the quality of dialysis and the longevity of patients. The most common circumstances that require surgical takedown of AV fistula are thrombosis and rupture.
