Abstract

Iatrogenic arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are well described in adults; however, this complication is rarely described and reported in infants. We report the case of a 3‐month‐old infant with complicated gastroschisis requiring multiple venipunctures who presented with signs and symptoms suggestive of traumatic arteriovenous fistula. Ultrasound imaging confirmed the presence of a wide‐necked AVF between the brachial artery and vein. The fistula was surgically repaired. This case report describes the clinical imaging and treatment options for infants with iatrogenic AVF. Β© 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2012

The results of femorotibial bypass for limb salvage vary a great deal. One of the reasons for this might be the discrepancy between potential inflow and run-of into the foot. An arteriovenous fistula at the distal graft anastomosis may improve results but the best anatomical arrangement for the fist
