[The post-traumatic arteriovenous symptom complex (author's transl)].

The post-traumatic arteriovenous symptom complex is an atypical manifestation of saccular arterial and arteriovenous aneurysms. Prominent in this condition is venous obstruction accompanied by abnormal arterial flow. Treatment for this condition is unsatisfactory, and the complex consists of a trio of venous and arterial obstruction and resistance to therapy. The complex can be recognised by a typical pulse form and the diagnosis can be confirmed by angiography of the affected limb.
