Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical use of the ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula as a long-term vascular access in patients with hemodialysis.Methods The clinical data of 36 patients with 1-year follow-up who had a wrist ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula formed in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from January 2013 and December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.The outcomes for this study including the surgical results,complication rate of ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula,immediate patency rate,average maturation time,1-year primary patency rate and true patency rate were analyzed.Results Thirty-four cases patients got successful ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula formed with palpable vascular thrill.There were no death cases and no severe cardio-cerebrovascular complications.No infection,heart failure,distal swelling and ischemia occurred.The immediate patency of ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula was 94.4%(34/36),the average maturation time was (67±4) d,1-year primary patency rate was 63.9%(23/36),and true patency rate was 67.6%(24/36).Conclusion Ulnar-basilic arteriovenous fistula with adequate 1-year primary patency and low risk of infection and complications can be a viable alternative as the hemodialysis vascular access.
