Summary
High-output arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) can cause serious complications. Intraoperative duplex ultrasound-guided banding effectively reduced high fistula flow, resolving symptoms and maintaining access patency in a hemodialysis patient.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Nephrology
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- High-output arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) in hemodialysis patients can lead to volume overload, venous hypertension, and right heart strain.
- Symptomatic high-flow AVFs require effective management to prevent complications and ensure adequate dialysis access.
