Surgery for avf complication
This document discusses surgical interventions for complications arising from arteriovenous fistulas (AVF), emphasizing their superiority over catheter access for dialysis patients. It outlines various complications, such as thrombosis, infection, and ischemic changes, along with appropriate surgical treatments for these issues. The importance of maintaining AVF patency and addressing complications before patient discharge is highlighted.

Failure • Failure tomature and achieve an adequate flow rate to maintain dialysis • Incidence of up to 27% • Such a complication may be a result of : – Thrombosis !! 17–25% – DM – Techniqal problems in constructing the anastomosis – A sclerotic vein segment in the forearm because of previous venisection – Inadequate venous size – Cacification of the arterial wall • Surgical thrombectomy is done by making a small venotomy and using a fogarty balloon catheter to remove the thrombus

Infection • Fever –Erythema-Tenderness • The second most common cause of AV access failure (0-3% in AVF and 6%-25%in AV grafts) • staph aureus -perivascular cellulitis -anatomical abnormalities - septic pulmonary embolism • Treatment: AVFs: Local drainage and antibiotic therapy for 6 weeks AV grafts: Antibiotic therapy and surgical treatment (in most cases complete excision of prosthetic graft)

- #30 Chronic pain • Tissue loss • Non functioning extremity amputation of fingers and/or forearm in 1% of patients There is evidence that the steal syndrome in risk groups may occur in 75–90% of patients after cre- ation of an AVF. This phenomenon remains clinically asymptomatic until the moment when compensatory mechanisms for perfusion by peripheral arteries are ex- hausted [38]. Pathophysiological mechanisms of vascular access- induced distal ischemia are complex and not well known. Symptoms of arterial blood diversion are more common in patients with diabetes mellitus and smokers Data in the literature suggest that symptomatic ischemia develops in 10–25% of patients with brachioce- phalic and brachiobasilic vascular access, 4–6% at the level of the forearm and 1–2% at the radiocephalic level [43]. Due to the increasing age of patients on HD as well as a rising number of comorbidities, the incidence of hand ischemia is significantly increasing. It is assumed that in the future, the frequency of these ischemias will rise due to popularization of vascular access in the prox- imal region of the elbow, as well as the growing number of elderly people on HD [43]. Treatment of this condition is difficult and the risk of amputation of fingers and the forearm is great.
