Our aim is to provide a quantitative context for vascular access surgeons in order to optimize surgical decision making and minimize patient morbidity. <b>Methods:</b> The de-identified national TriNetX database was queried to extracted all adult patients who had a known AVF between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2021. From this cohort individuals who also were diagnosed with COVID-19 prior to creation of their AVF were identified. Cohorts were propensity score matched according to age at AVF surgery, gender, ethnicity, diabetes mellitus, nicotine dependence, tobacco use, use of anticoagulant medications, and use of platelet aggregation inhibitors, hypertensive diseases, hyperlipidemia, and prothrombotic states. <b>Results:</b> After propensity score matching there were 5170 patients; 2585 patients in each group. The total patient population had 3023 (58.5%) males and 2147 (41.5%) females. The overall rate of thrombosis of AV fistulas was 300 (11.6%) in the cohort with COVID-19 and 256 (9.9%) in the control group (OR 1.199, CI 1.005-1.43, P =.0453).

Case Presentation: Here we present a case of severely symptomatic left IVC with infrahepatic disruption, azygos continuation, and retroaortic left renal vein causing symptoms of severe pelvic congestion and recurrent miscarriages (8 total) in a 41 year old female. The patient was treated with stenting of the compressed retroaortic portion of the IVC/left renal vein. Four months post-procedure, the stent remained patent and the patient reported considerable improvement in their venous congestion symptoms.

Conclusions: The case is notable for its severe symptomatology of pelvic venous disease including recurrent miscarriage.
