Needling Technique and Management for Hemodialysis access
Safe needling and management of vascular access in hemodialysis patients are essential for effective treatment and minimizing complications. This paper highlights the significance of cannulation techniques performed by nurses, introducing a skill training program. Methods for assessing the maturation of AVFs and prosthetic grafts are discussed, alongside practical tips for first cannulation. It emphasizes the need for individualized cannulation approaches by distinguishing between vascular access techniques, their advantages and disadvantages, and tailoring strategies to each patient. Furtherm...

Review of Vascular Approaches for Endovascular Treatment of Dysfunctional Hemodialysis access
For endovascular treatment of dysfunctional hemodialysis access, there are both conventional approaches that directly puncture the hemodialysis access and alternative approaches that do not. Examples of transvenous alternative approaches include puncturing the ipsilateral jugular vein, ipsilateral basilic vein, or unilateral femoral vein. In contrast, examples of transarterial alternative approaches involve puncturing the ipsilateral radial artery or ipsilateral brachial artery. Since both the conventional approach and transarterial alternative approach are directly exposed to arterial pressur...

Unusual Fistula Development in Cannulation Zone of Arteriovenous Prosthetic Graft: A Case Report
An iatrogenic graft-to-vein fistula is a rare complication with uncertain clinical significance that can occur due to repetitive needle injury traversing between a vascular access graft and a nearby vein. We present a case of an arteriovenous graft (AVG) complicated by an iatrogenic graft-to-vein fistula at the proximal cannulation zone and a thrombosed distal venous limb caused by a steno-occlusive lesion at the graft-vein (GV) anastomosis. Aspiration thrombectomy and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) was insufficient to address the high-flow iatrogenic graft-to-vein fistula. Conseq...

Iatrogenic Graft-to-Vein Fistula Formation in Hemodialysis Arteriovenous Grafts: Two Cases Report
Iatrogenic fistula between the hemodialysis arteriovenous graft and the vein is a rare but significant complication. This is because, if left untreated, the hemodialysis arteriovenous graft can progress to thrombotic occlusion. We present two case reports of patients who developed iatrogenic fistulas between a hemodialysis arteriovenous graft and a vein and subsequently underwent treatment. One patient underwent a new dialysis access creation, while the other had angioplasty and surgical ligation. When such complications occur, it is crucial to apply various treatment methods based on the pati...
