Highlights • The venous aneurysm is one of the most common complications of autologous AVF. • The vein aneurysm should be treat by surgical resection and anastomotic ligature. • AVF shouldn’t be ligated from 1-year kidney transplantation except in some cases. • Surgical ligation to prevent complications could be considered an option.
