Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 10

Abstract

In the present medical scenario with high incidence of End Stage Renal Disease and long waiting period for renal transplant the patients are on some form of dialysis. And haemodialysis is the most common way to tide over the waiting period. So invariably an arteriovenous fistula is warranted in these patients. Hence the study to find out the efficacy of the surgical technique which will give good results and also a comfortable cannulation to the dialysis technician. In our study we found that a brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula has a better success rate and less complication. But technically challenging intra operatively for the surgeon and increased operating time and cost and for the dialysis technician difficult cannulation. Hence a brachiocephalic is preferable over a radiocephalic.
