چکیده

Femoral arteriovenous fistula is a rare complication of percutaneous transfemoral catheterization. We report the duplex Doppler findings of three such cases. Continuous positive diastolic arterial flow, as well as an abnormal venous flow pattern, was observed in all cases. When present, these Doppler spectral changes support the diagnosis of arteriovenous fistula.

ABDOMINAL IMAGING Splenic Arteriovenous Fistula: An Unusual Cause of Portal Hypertension Primarily Diagnosed by Color Duplex Sonography

Splenic arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are rare lesions. Herein, we report a 40-year-old man with portal hypertension secondary to splenic AVF, which was primarily diagnosed by color Duplex sonography. Sonography revealed a non-pulsatile, cyst-like mass at the splenic hilum with an unusual comma-shaped extension. In color duplex sonography, complete color fill-in of the lesion with the character...

Clinical relevance of musical murmurs in color-coded duplex sonography of peripheral and visceral vessels.

BACKGROUND Musical murmurs (MMs) are Doppler phenomena which sound like high-frequency musical sounds. They reflect high and turbulent flow within relevant stenoses and were first described in degenerated bioprosthetic valves and later in intracranial vessels and were associated either with high-grade arterial stenosis, small collateral arteries or carotid cavernous fistulas. Objective of this ...

Non-invasive evaluation of vessels by duplex sonography prior to construction of arteriovenous fistulas for haemodialysis.

PURPOSE The prospective study was aimed at estimating the value of duplex sonography for imaging arteries before arteriovenous fistula (AVF) construction and of evaluating the influence of this method on the outcome of fistula construction. METHODS A total of 35 patients with end stage renal disease were examined by duplex sonography (DS) before AVF construction, and 27 of them with patent AV...
