1Department of Nephrology, Huizhou Central Hospital, Huizhou Guangdong, P. R. China 516001.
Objective:
To compare the permeability and incidence rate of complication of arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous, homologous, and artificial Teflon blood vessels.
Methods:
Two hundred and forty one cases with arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous, homologous, and artificial Teflon blood vessels were followed up to compare the permeability and incidence rate of complication at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years.
Results:
The incidence rate of complication of autogenous blood vessels was lowest, it had no statistical differences compared with arteriovenous internal fistula made by homologous blood vessels. The permeability of arteriovenous internal fistula made by homologous blood vessels was highest, and it had no statistical differences compared with autogenous blood vessels. The permeability of arteriovenous internal fistula made by artificial Teflon blood vessels was lowest, but the incidence rate of complication was highest, and it had significantly statistical differences compared with arteriovenous internal fistula made by autogenous blood vessels (P < 0.01).
Conclusion:
Arteriovenous internal fistulas made by autogenous and homologous blood vessels have high permeability and low incidence rate of complication, they are superior to the arteriovenous internal fistula made by artificial Teflon blood vessels.
