Abstract
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) operations are the most frequent procedures performed for hemodialysis and they are made in order to increase quality of life in chronic renal failure. One of the most frequent late complications of the AVF is aneurysm formation. In this study, we aimed to present our diagnostic and surgical therapy procedures for a ruptured giant aneurysm developed as a late complication of an AVF.
