Angiosarcoma in vascular access after transplantation

2013 
The most frequent complications that occur after the completion of an internal arteriovenous fistula are thrombotic. Other complications, such as infection, cardiac decompensation, aneurysm/pseudoaneurysm or median nerve injury, are less common. Nonetheless, after transplantation, adjuvant immunosuppression has long-term side effects, such as the development of malignancies. Here, we report the case of a patient subjected to renal transplantation who developed an angiosarcoma located in an internal arteriovenous fistula.
