title: [Arteriovenous aneurysm--an uncommon complication in open fractures of the leg].
abstract: The authors describe a less common complication of external osteosynthesis--a false arteriovenous aneurysm. On the case-history of a patient they demonstrate the risk associated with insertion of nails, the necessity of careful follow-up of patients after operation, and in case of suspicion, the necessity of accurate diagnosis and urgent surgical operation.
