Central Transposition of the Cephalic Vein in Patients with Brachiocephalic Arteriovenous Fistula and Cephalic Arch Stenosis
PURPOSE Our study aims to evaluate to evaluate clinical outcomes after cephalic vein transposition (CVT) to the axilla in patients with brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (BC-AVF) and cephalic arch stenosis (CAS). MATERIALS AND METHODS Hospital records of 13 patients (median age, 61 years; males, 54%) who received CVT to the proximal basilic/axillary vein due to either dysfunction (n=2) or...
متن کاملAccess flow reduction and recurrent symptomatic cephalic arch stenosis in brachiocephalic hemodialysis arteriovenous fistulas.
BACKGROUND Recurrent cephalic arch stenosis (CAS) has been linked to high flow and has a high rate of recurrence following angioplasty. This study investigates the effectiveness of access flow reduction in decreasing rapidly recurrent symptomatic CAS. METHODS A retrospective study of patient records from February 2005 to April 2009 was conducted. Patients with brachiocephalic fistulas who had...
متن کاملIncreased Inlet Blood Flow Velocity Predicts Low Wall Shear Stress in the Cephalic Arch of Patients with Brachiocephalic Fistula Access.
BACKGROUND An autogenous arteriovenous fistula is the optimal vascular access for hemodialysis. In the case of brachiocephalic fistula, cephalic arch stenosis commonly develops leading to access failure. We have hypothesized that a contribution to fistula failure is low wall shear stress resulting from post-fistula creation hemodynamic changes that occur in the cephalic arch. METHODS Twenty-t...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Endovascular treatment of stent fracture and pseudoaneurysm formation in arteriovenous fistula dialysis access.
Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) and grafts (AVG) for hemodialysis access generally provide good long-term solutions for the patient with end-stage renal disease. However, complications of both AVGs and AVFs are common and require a multimodality approach to maintain their patency and continued use. Commonly encountered problems include stenosis, thrombosis, aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm formation, ru...
