Pediatric femoral arteriovenous injury is a rare and complex condition, often associated with critical complications, challenging surgical interventions, and a high risk of mortality and disability. The location of body wounds may contribute to delayed diagnosis of the condition, emphasizing the importance of timely physical examination for early diagnosis. Timely and accurate vascular repair is paramount for saving lives and minimizing the risk of limb amputation. Long-term postoperative follow-up is necessary to monitor the patency of the repaired vessels and promptly detect any complications.
