COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF TWO SUTURING TECHNIQUES OF END-TO-SIDE ARTERIOVENOUS ANASTOMOSIS ON EARLY OUTCOMES OF RADIO-CEPHALIC FISTULAS

Comparative study of the effects of two suturing techniques of End-to-side arteriovenous anastomosis on early outcomes of radio-cephalic fistulas

Introduction: Radiocephalic arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for dialysis have significantly high maturation failure rate.Many surgical technique-related factors are known to impact the outcomes of AVF surgery; anastomotic suturing technique is one such factor for which the published data is sparse.Patients and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the
