Abstract:Arteriovenous fistula is a preferred approach to obtain vascular access in chronic hemodialysis patients. Arteriovenous fistula has some effects on cardiac and pulmonary systems. High output heart failure is a rare but an important complication of arteriovenous fistula. We report here a case of acute pulmonary edema after creating arteriovenous fistula in a hemodialysis patient with pneumonectomy.
