{Abstract}: Population aging and prolonged time on dialysis pose challenges to vascular access for nephrologists and vascular surgeons. HeRO grafts are an option used for patients with central venous obstruction and without the possibility of other vascular access on upper limbs. Some long-term complications, namely access thrombosis, infection, and limb ischemia, have already been reported. There are few data on thromboembolic complications associated with this device. We report the first case in the literature of Budd-Chiari Syndrome associated with the HeRO graft.
