PROCEDURE
Repair pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula.

FINDINGS
The pseudoaneurysm appeared to be a side of a venous side branch where *the tie necrosed a vein or it rough* due to arterial pressure over time.

I can't understand what the doctor is saying. Does this sentence make any sense to anybody?
