Iatrogenic fistula between prosthetic haemodialysis access graft and autogenous vein: unusual cause of graft thrombosis.
Haemodialysis access graft is so important as to be called a lifeline for the patient on maintenance haemodialysis. The vascular access problem is the leading cause of admission in patients with end-stage renal disease. Many complications of the prosthetic vascular access graft are reported, such as graft thrombosis, infection, aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm, and arterial steal syndrome [1]. We rec...
متن کاملBlood Flow Simulation in an Aorta with a mild coarctation Using Magnetic Resonance Angiography and Finite Volume Method
Coarctation of the aorta is one of the five main congenital cardiovascular failures, accounting for 6–8 percent of these failures. This research aimed to simulate the blood flow of a seventeen-year-old male teen with a mild coarctation at one-third of his aorta's descending branch. The simulation was performed by extracting the domain and the input pulsatile velocity signal as the boundary cond...
متن کاملClot injection for treatment of iatrogenic femoral arteriovenous fistula after percutaneous coronary intervention: a novel minimally invasive method
Iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is usually caused by inappropriate blood vessel cannulation during diagnostic and interventional procedures [1–3]. Arteriovenous fistulas occur in 1.0–1.5% of cases following procedures with femoral access (FA) [1, 4, 5]. Iatrogenic fistulas are unintentional connections between an artery and a vein due to the needle being advanced too deeply and reaching ...
متن کاملThe haemodialysis arteriovenous graft: is a new era coming?
The worldwide increase in the incidence and prevalence of haemodialysis (HD) patients is determining the growing demand of vascular access (VA) placement [1]. It is also wellknown that the VA issue imposes a major financial burden on healthcare systems and can be associated with increased morbidity and mortality [2]. VA dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HD patients [3]....
متن کاملHaemodialysis and Vascular Access in the End Stage Kidney Disease
The efficiency of haemodialysis treatment relies on a functional status of vascular access. A vascular access makes life-saving haemodialysis treatments possible. The efficiency of haemodialysis treatment relies on a functional status of vascular access. The purpose of this review was to discuss the role of haemodialysis and vascular access in end stage kidney disease. Vascular access and its r...
