Core Tip |
An innocuous looking scab may develop over an arteriovenous fistula after repeated punctures. There may be serious underlying damage to the arterialised vein. This case report emphasizes the importance of an early diagnostic colour Doppler examination in these circumstances and timely surgical intervention, to prevent potential life-threatening haemorrhage or other complications.
