lüll Use of superficial femoral vein for hemodialysis arteriovenous access Huber TS; Ozaki CK; Flynn TC; Ross EA; Seeger JMJ Vasc Surg 2000[May]; 31 (5): 1038-41Maintaining hemodialysis access in the expanding number of patients with end-stage renal disease is a difficult and challenging problem. Published guidelines outline the initial recommendations for hemodialysis access; however, there is little consensus about the most appropriate options for the subset of patients with repeated access failures and/or unsuitable veins. Two case reports are presented describing the use of composite saphenous-superficial femoral vein autogenous accesses placed in the upper and lower extremities. The function of the autogenous accesses appeared to be similar to a mature arteriovenous fistula in the short-term, although further longitudinal studies are required. The superficial femoral vein may be a useful hemodialysis access conduit for patients with limited access options.|*Femoral Vein/surgery[MESH]|*Renal Dialysis[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Arteriovenous Shunt, Surgical[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Kidney Failure, Chronic/therapy[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Saphenous Vein/surgery[MESH] |
