أنشئ ناسور شرياني وريدي Explanation: AV stands for arteriovenous (arterial-venous). A fistula is a passage (usually abnormal, but sometimes artificial) leading from an abscess or hollow organ to the body surface or from one hollow organ to another and permitting passage of fluids or secretions (Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-10-20 21:04:49 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The abbreviation AV can also be used for \"atrioventricular,\" but that does not apply in this context.
