RAMOS VAZQUEZ, Junys; PENA BAZART, Laureano; SANCHEZ HORTA, Yusleny and PAEZ LABRADOR, Yosbel. Thrombosed pseudo-aneurysm in autologous arteriovenous fistula. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2019, vol.23, n.1, pp. 135-140. ISSN 1561-3194.
ABSTRACT
Introduction:
the arteriovenous-autologous fistula is the optimal vascular access for patients undergoing hemodialysis, since its preparation, maturity stage and use of it can include several complications, being pseudo-aneurysm on arteriovenous-autologous fistulas one of the infrequent complications.
Case report:
a 40-year-old male patient with a history of hypertension, cerebral aneurysm, and chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis is presented, using an arteriovenous-autologous fistula as a pathway that developed a pseudo-aneurysm. Clinical and surgical characteristics related to this case are exposed. Conclusions: the case of a patient with thrombosed pseudo-aneurysm developed on arteriovenous-autologous fistula was reported, an infrequent complication but its surgical resolution allowed prolonging the useful life of the vascular access.
