An unusual femoral arteriovenous fistula following cardiac catheterization.
The development of an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a rare complication of cardiac catheterization. We report a rare case with a femoral AVF following cardiac catheterization, originating from the right deep femoral artery and eventually draining into the right superficial femoral vein through the subcutaneous vein.
