Abstract:
Radiobasilic transposition arteriovenous fistula (RBTAVF) is often ignored as an option for haemodialysis access. We present the case of a 57-year-old male patient who presented at the AKUH vascular clinic, Karachi, for the creation of long-term haemodialysis vascular access. He had small-sized forearm cephalic vein (1.5 mm), but reasonable sized basilic vein. He underwent successful RBTAVF. Most of the guidelines recommend brachiocephalic fistula (BCF) as the second choice following radiocephalic AVF. This case recommends the inclusion of RBAVF as the second choice for vascular access in international guidelines, in addition to BCF and BBF.
摘要:
放射性转位动静脉瘘(RBTAVF)通常被忽略为血液透析通道的一种选择。我们介绍了一名57岁的男性患者,他在AKUH血管诊所就诊,卡拉奇,用于创建长期血液透析血管通路。他有小尺寸的前臂头静脉(1.5毫米),但相当大的贵重静脉。他经历了成功的RBTAVF。大多数指南推荐头臂瘘(BCF)作为头臂AVF后的第二选择。该病例建议将RBAVF作为血管通路的第二选择纳入国际指南,除了BCF和BBF。
