A blood vessel that provides a direct link between an artery and a vein is a shunt vessel.
For example, shunt vessels connect arterioles and venules in the skin, to cut down heat loss in cold weather.
In surgery, a shunt is a device used to connect two vessels or chambers of the cardiovascular system.
