Peripheral venous aneurysms are a known complication following autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for hemodialysis. We present a case of aneurysms involving the cephalic vein associated with calcification, a condition that, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported earlier in the literature.
