AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The authors, after a careful review of the literature during the last 15 years concerning arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the jaws, report a case of congenital arteriovenous fistula of the mandible characterized by several episodes of spontaneous hemorrhage requiring emergency hemimandibulectomy. Radiologic, arteriographic and pathologic aspects of this lesion are discussed. Even though nomenclature concerning AVM of the jaws is confusing the authors draw attention to the embryologic features which are responsible for these lesions. They also point out the main diagnostic and therapeutic aspects emphasizing the small effect that ligation of the external carotid artery has on bleeding and the importance of choosing case by case the best treatment considering the great variety of clinical and pathologic aspects that characterize these lesions.

Construction and validation of a prediction model for arteriovenous fistula thrombosis in patients with AVF using Lasso regression.
J Vasc Access

Department of Nephrology, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, Chengdu, China.
Objective: The primary objective of this study is to develop and validate a high-risk model for Arteriovenous Fistula Thrombosis (AVFT) in patients undergoing autogenous arteriovenous fistula surgery for hemodialysis.
Methods: Retrospectively, we collected general information, clinical characteristics, laboratory examinations, and dialysis-related factors from a cohort of 1465 patients who received continuous arteriovenous fistula surgery at the Hemodialysis Access Center of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2019 and June 2022. The patients were randomly divided into a training set and a validation set in a 2:1 ratio.
Creating an Ellipsys percutaneous arteriovenous fistula after a failed ipsilateral WavelinQ fistula: A case report of an endovascular approach for access restoration.

Agaplesion Markus Krankenhaus, Frankfurt/Main, Germany.
The introduction of devices for endovascular dialysis access creation (WavelinQ and Ellipsys) offers practitioners more options for access management in dialysis patients. Especially in terms of reducing the usage of central venous catheters, a native fistula is desirable as an initial dialysis access. We present a case in which a failed WavelinQ type fistula was reactivated using the Ellipsys procedure on the same arm.

Introduction: A common complication of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is thrombosis in the venous segment, which can impair vascular access unless a successful thrombectomy is performed.
Case Presentation: In this manuscript, we describe the case of a diabetic patient who had primary AVF in a snuff-box with subsequent superficialization of the medial vein of the forearm. Unfortunately, this section of the vein was occluded, although the fistula was patent through the cephalic vein (CV).
A Complex, Convexity, Anterior Superior Sagittal Sinus Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Secondary to Venous Sinus Thrombosis.

Neurosurgery, Queens Hospital Center, Romford, GBR.
We report the management of a convexity dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) in an uncommon anterior superior sagittal sinus (SSS) location. This was a high-risk Cognard IIa+b dAVF, which is notoriously complex to treat. Endoscopic management alone for complex SSS dAVFs is challenging due to the often bilateral arterial supply to the fistula, as demonstrated in this case.

Division of Vascular Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, Wisconsin.
Objective: As vascular surgery has become increasingly sub-specialized, the scope of vascular care that general surgeons can be trained to provide has come into question. Thus, we sought to understand the competence and autonomy of general surgery residents (GSR) in core vascular surgery procedures.
Design: Three core operations in vascular surgery were identified: lower extremity (LE) amputations, arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation, and LE embolectomy and thrombectomy (thromboembolectomy).
