Abstract
An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) refers to an anomalous connection between an artery and a vein. It can arise from traumatic or iatrogenic injuries. The occurrence of multiple spontaneous AVFs is rare. We present a case that used endovascular therapy to treat multiple spontaneous AVFs involving the internal iliac, common femoral, superficial femoral, and profunda femoris arteries and veins.
