Upper Arm Basilic Vein Transposition for Hemodialysis: A Single Center Study for 300 Cases
PURPOSE The population of end-stage renal failure patients dependent on hemodialysis continues to expand with an increasing number of patients having an unsuitable cephalic vein or failed radio- and brachio-cephalic fistula. In these patients, the transposed basilic vein to brachial artery arteriovenous fistula (BaVT) provides autologous choice for hemodialysis. The results of basilic vein tran...
متن کاملAnatomy of the Basilic Vein in the Arm and Its Importance for Surgery
The anatomy of the basilic vein in the arm is described. Twenty-six arms from 13 cadavers were studied. A comparative analysis, which included the number of valves and measurement of the diameter of the basilic vein at three different points in the arm, was done. The basilic vein was always present and single. In its superficial segment, this vein was joined by the intermediate cubital vein in ...

متن کاملUltrasound-guided brachial and basilic vein cannulation in emergency department patients with difficult intravenous access.
STUDY OBJECTIVE Emergency department patients who require intravenous access but lack peripheral intravenous sites frequently require central line placement. Blind percutaneous brachial vein cannulation has been proposed as an alternative in these patients but is associated with high failure and complication rates. We evaluated an ultrasound-guided approach to percutaneous deep brachial vein or...
متن کاملBasilic Vein Transposition Used as a Tertiary Vascular Access for Hemodialysis: 15 Years of Experience
INTRODUCTION The quality of the life in patients requiring long term hemodialysis is directly proportional to the long-term patency of their vascular access. Basilic vein transposition for vascular access (BAVA) represents a suitable option for creating a tertiary native vascular access for hemodialysis on the upper extremities for patients requiring long term hemodialysis. The purpose of the s...
