"cephalic vein anatomy in antecubital fossa during the construction of arteriovenous fistula"

چکیده
in order to create an effective arteriovenous fistula (avf) in patients with sustained chronic renal failure (crf), surgeons need to become familiar with various anatomical variations of venous structures in the operating field. because of variety and different types of cubital venous anatomies, there is more than a 90% possibility of creating suitable avfs in the cubital fossa , but in the wrist and forearm, due to old injections and thrombophlebitis, there is less chance to do so. since cephalic vein is the main venous conduit for constructing an avf in the antecubital region, this study focuses on the various anatomical variations of cephalic vein and its communicating branches. we studied the cubital cephalic anatomy of 103 patients with crf during construction of an avf from july 1999 to june 2001. five types of cephalic vein anatomy were seen: type a (44.66%), type b (30.1%), type c (18.44%), type d (3.88%) and type e (2.29%) in 39 right and 64 left arms. seventy-six anastomoses were performed to brachial trunk, 25 to the radial and 2 to the ulnar artery. eleven cases with progressive swelling after avf were uneventfully cured by hand elevation. no infection, false aneurysm, venous hypertension or steal syndrome was detected. in order to obtain the best results and select appropriate operative technique for reliable vascular access in crf, it is necessary to understand the anatomical variety of cephalic vein.

Brachiocephalic Arteriovenous Fistula for Hemodialysis through the Median Antecubital Vein
In patients unsuitable for radiocephalic fistula creation, the next option is brachiocephalic fistula. In such patients, we exploited the venous interconnections in the cubital fossa for median cubital vein-Brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation. In this article, we describe our experience in the creation of such technical variant of the brachiocephalic fistula AVF, its success an...
متن کاملErratum: Right Cardiac Catheterization Using the Antecubital Fossa Vein in Korean Patients
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Right heart catheterization is traditionally performed using a femoral vein approach that involves admission, bed rest, and risks of bleeding and hematoma. Recent studies have confirmed safety of the use of forearm vein for right cardiac catheterization. In the present study, we evaluated the feasibility of right cardiac catheterization via the antecubital fossa vein i...

in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.

Furthermore high vascular lesions may present high perfusion as well as brain cancer. The symmetrical calcifications and the diffuse enhancing nodular lesions are other important findings that suggest a diffuse cerebral condition. Actually the nodular enhancing lesions constitute pre-cystic lesions as same cases show in the literature. Actually the leucodistrophy described in this entity is rat...
متن کاملFemoral versus antecubital vein contrast injection.
In their interesting narrative review about nontranspulmonary contrast echocardiography, Soliman et al. devoted a section to discuss the greater sensitivity of venous femoral injection of contrast for the detection of patent foramen ovale (PFO) as compared with venous brachial injection. This has been explained by intraatrial flow streaming, with inferior caval vein flow directed to the interat...
