Most arteriovenous fistulas can be cured, but they need to be analyzed differently. Most patients with traumatic arteriovenous fistulas can achieve complete cure with intervention or, in a very small number of patients, with surgical treatment. The vast majority of non-traumatic dural arteriovenous fistulas require surgical intervention, and only a small number of patients can be self-healed through neck compression and slowing of blood flow. Arteriovenous fistula is a treatable condition with a favorable prognosis. Most patients with arteriovenous fistulas are now thought to have some relationship with infection and trauma, and their development may be related to all of these factors. The target of treatment is the venous end of the arteriovenous fistula, because there may be more than one arteriovenous fistula, but no matter how many fistulas will eventually converge into the venous end, and the treatment of the venous end of the fistula can be achieved for the cure of the disease.
