Journal Title: Vajira Medical Journal: Journal of Urban Medicine - Year 2022, Vol 66, Issue 5
Abstract
Objective: In this study, we evaluated the results of our interrupted anastomosis operations. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted on consecutive operations for interrupted anastomosis wrist AVF performed by staff surgeons from January 2005 to December 2018. Results: Among the 50 cases, 45 (90%) were successful. The primary failure rate was 10%, and the maturation time required for the fistula to develop was 8.14 weeks. Patency rates were 79%, 70%, and 62% at the end of the 1st, 3rd, and 5th years, respectively. Anastomotic aneurysm was the second most common complication. Conclusion: Interrupted anastomosis increases the opportunity for the construction of a successful wrist AVF and is a reliable, safe technique with a high patency rate.
