Endovascular treatment of Arteriovenous Graft Pseudoaneurysm: a case report

Abstract

Arteriovenous graft fistula (AVG) is used in chronic hemodialysis patients. Depending on graft materials, AVG is associated with common complications that may need several interventions. Pseudoaneurysm is one of the rare complications with various reasons. Patients with this complication require access revision and even surgical repair. However, a new method using covered-stent graft may be applied in several cases. In this study, we presented a young male hemodialysis patient with AVG referred with a pseudoaneurysm and treated with covered-stent graft. After a year, he was referred with pseudoaneurysms on two separate occasion of AVG. He was again treated with covered-stent graft.
