Endovascular closure of an arterivenous graft for dialysis-associated steal syndrome of lower extremity.

Steal syndrome causing limb ischemia is a rare but important complication of arteriovenous fistulas. When surgical or endovascular means to resolve ischemia are inconclusive, closure of the fistula becomes required. Our case presented with lower extremity ischemia resulting from an arteriovenous fistula graft. We present the successful endovascular closure of the lower extremity graft using the Amplatzer Vascular Plug.
