Arterio-venous fistula formation after hand replantation
Abstract:
Replantation of a completely severed finger, hand or arm is now performed with wide success. We now report an extremely rare complication of this replantation, an arterio-venous (A-V) shunt formation. Pathogenesis of the new A-V fistula formation is discussed.

Hemodialysis I: Introduction
Hemodialysis (HD) is a medical treatment that artificially removes waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood when the kidneys are no longer able to perform these functions effectively. In this process, blood is filtered through a semipermeable membrane, allowing for the selective removal of waste while preserving necessary components like blood cells and proteins. Hemodialysis is typically performed in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or severe kidney...
