Percutaneous treatment of thrombosed hemodialysis arteriovenous fistulas: use of thromboaspiration and balloon angioplasty
BACKGROUND Endovascular strategies have been used to manage patients with thrombosed vascular access for hemodialysis. We analyzed primary success rate and patency rates of balloon angioplasty following mechanical thrombectomy for the treatment of thrombosed native arteriovenous fistulas. METHODS This was a retrospective study of 24 patients with thrombosed native arteriovenous fistulas who w...
متن کاملInitial experience during balloon angioplasty assisted surgical thrombectomy for thrombosed hemodialysis grafts.
BACKGROUND Access failure in hemodialysis patients is commonly encountered by vascular surgeons. Researchers have reported various solutions for dealing with clotted grafts, including thrombectomy, thrombolysis, interposition grafting, angioplasty, or a combination of these methods. Surgical thrombectomy has been the standard procedure for dealing with thrombosed hemodialysis grafts in the card...
متن کاملAngioplasty after thrombolysis.
The article by Meyer et al.' (Circulation 66: 905, 1982) presents exciting, well-documented treatment of patients with successful throm-bolysis followed,by immediate angioplasty. The average area stenosis of the reported successes was reduced from 90.2 ± 7.3% to 58.6 ± 19%. These results parallel our own in routine angioplasty and selected post-thrombolysis patients. How disappointing, then, to...
متن کاملPharmacomechanical Thrombolysis versus Surgical Thrombectomy for the Treatment of Thrombosed Haemodialysis Grafts.
INTRODUCTION The key to treatment of a thrombosed dialysis graft is restoration and maintenance of function as long as possible. The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of pharmacomechanical thrombolysis and surgical thrombectomy in the treatment of thrombosed haemodialysis grafts. MATERIALS AND METHODS During a 3-year period, 108 patients with 114 thrombosed dialysis grafts w...
