Fistules artérioveineuses acquises

Most acquired arteriovenous fistulae (AAVF) are from traumatic origin and increasingly iatrogenic. Most frequently, they are localized to the limbs. Blood steel through the fistula has drastic local and general pathophysiological and haemodynamic consequences. Current imaging techniques perfectly identify the physiology and the three-dimensional topography of these AAVF. Surgery offers good results for limbs and trunk acquired fistula. Endovascular techniques are increasingly used to approach deep localized and high risk AAVF with promising results.
