arterio-venous

Lateral anastomoses were employed in arterio-venous sutures and in the operation of the Eck fistula.

Duval, still struggling futilely with his harness, said, "It's a fistula an arterio-venous fistula."

Grant said, "No more arterio-venous fistulas, I hope, Michaels."

In the case of arterio-venous aneurisms in the limbs the possibilities of treatment are enlarged, and here the alternatives of (_a_) local interference with the sac and direct ligature of the wounded point,

I saw no case of arterio-venous communication in which a larger bullet than one of the four types chosen had been responsible for the primary injury, but a difference of 1-1/2 mm. in calibre in the small projectile might well determine the division, the pure and symmetrical perforation of the two vessels, or the giving way of one side, so that they were deeply notched instead of perforated.

It, in fact, converted these cases from arterio-venous aneurisms into pure aneurismal varices.

On the other hand, the only case I saw in which a proximal ligature had been applied for an arterio-venous aneurism of the leg resulted most unsatisfactorily.

_ -- Uncomplicated cases of aneurismal varix, as might be expected, were less common than those in which the arterio-venous communication was accompanied by the formation of a traumatic sac.

In the case of popliteal arterio-venous aneurisms a number were successfully treated by proximal (Hunterian) ligature, and by single ligature immediately above the sac.
