Saphenofemoral Arteriovenous Fistula as Hemodialysis access: PPUKM Early Experience
Journal Title: INNOVATIVE JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCE - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
The biggest and difficult challenge in hemodialysis access is to maintain it over the time in the expanding number of patients with end-stage renal failure (1). There is little consensus discussed about the option available for small subset of patients repeated failures or unsuitable veins in published guidelines (1). So far, there have been few reports of saphenofemoral AV fistula (SFAVF) over the last 10-20 years because of previous suggestion of poor patencies and needling difficulties. Here, we describe our early clinical experience with SFAVF. The function and patency rate of accesses appeared to be similar like other mature arteriovenous fistula in the short-term, although further longitudinal studies are required.
