Resumo(s)
The exhaustion of superficial venous patrimony or reduced diameter of superficial veins usually prevents patients from having an arteriovenous fistula created. In such cases, using deep vessels can be a more viable option as opposed to an arteriovenous graft. We describe a new approach for the brachio-brachial arteriovenous fistula creation technique. It consists of 3 small incisions, thus causing minimal surgical damage. We have found it to be better tolerated by the patients and well received by dialysis nurses. This procedure also allows improved access for cannulation and more available puncture sites.
