Direct anastomosis between the distal superficial femoral artery and the saphenous vein for hemodialysis is a valid option whenever, after exhausting the upper extremities as a site for vascular access, an alternative procedure is required. The procedure is simple, safe and reliable. It provides excellent accessibility and long term patency rate.
