    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Interventional Radiology

    Background:

    • Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are crucial for hemodialysis access.
    • Ensuring the patency and proper function of AVFs is critical for patient outcomes.
    • Early detection and management of complications like thrombosis are essential.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate the collateral flush technique for AV fistula creation.
    • To assess the benefits of this technique in terms of patency assessment and complication management.

    Main Methods:

    • The collateral flush technique involves preserving a collateral vein branch during AV fistula surgery.
    • This preserved branch is used for immediate assessment of anastomotic line and fistula limb patency.
    • The technique facilitates rapid thrombectomy for early thrombosis and allows for on-table arteriography.

    Main Results:

    • The technique was successfully applied in 300 patients.
    • Good results were achieved in terms of immediate patency assessment and complication management.
    • Facilitated easy and rapid thrombectomy for early thrombosis without disturbing the anastomotic line.

    Conclusions:

    • The collateral flush technique is a valuable addition to AV fistula surgery.
    • Its routine use is recommended for improved surgical outcomes and complication management.
    • The technique offers advantages in patency assessment, thrombosis management, and arteriography.
