Therefore, rigid-walled analyses may be acceptable for identifying high shear regions of arteriovenous fistulae.

Objective: Treatment of 11 patients with aneurysms or arteriovenous fistulae of the craniocervical arteries with stent grafts.

We review our case and the world literature on the evaluation and management of trauma-related renal-caval arteriovenous fistulae.

We present computational hemodynamic simulations in four patient-specific models of mature arteriovenous fistulae reconstructed from 3D ultrasound scans.

Background: Synthetic grafts have generally been found to exhibit lower survival rates and higher complication rates than native arteriovenous fistulae.

We report the case of a 74 years-old woman, operated for multiple arteriovenous fistulae, admitted to hospital with upper-limb oedema.

Conclusion: Stent grafts are a useful tool for the endovascular treatment of head and neck aneurysms and direct arteriovenous fistulae in selected patients.

Arteriovenous fistulae are surgically created to provide adequate access for dialysis patients suffering from end-stage renal disease.
