A 52-year-old female patient with high-flow renal arteriovenous fistula (AVF): ( A ) ultrasonography (USG) Doppler showing turbulent flow within the large venous pouch, ( B ) volume rendered image of the computed tomography angiogram showing the high-flow AVF with large venous pouch, ( C ) right renal angiogram showing the AVF with a single dilated tortuous arterial feeder from right renal artery, ( D ) fluoroscopic image showing proximal occlusion with balloon catheter and distal glue cast in the feeding artery, ( E ) angiogram showing complete cessation of antegrade flow in the AVF and filling of the normal upper polar branches, and ( F ) post-procedure Doppler USG showing echogenic contents with no flow suggestive of complete thrombosis.
