Abstract:
Objective To explore the efficacy of interventional therapy for central venous stenosis in maintenance hemodialysis patients. Methods The general clinical data of the maintenance hemodialysis patients with central venous stenosis, who received interventional therapy in Changzheng Hospital of Naval Medical University (Second Military Medical University) from Jan. 2014 to Mar. 2018, were retrospectively analyzed, and the patency of vascular access of interventional therapy were followed up. Results A total of 82 maintenance hemodialysis patients with central venous stenosis were enrolled. Six-eight patients (82.93%) had a history of temporary central venous catheterization. Among the 82 patients, 13 (15.85%) had double lesions of central vein and 69 (84.15%) had single lesion; and 5 (6.10%) had mild lesions, 17 (20.73%) had moderate lesions, 35 (42.68%) had severe lesions and 25 (30.49%) had complete occlusion. Of the 82 patients, 57 were treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and 9 by percutaneous transluminal stenting. The follow-up period ranged from 12 to 62 months after operation. The patency rate of vascular access was 75.76% (50/66) at 6 months postoperatively and 68.18% (45/66) at 12 months postoperatively. The overall patency rate of vascular access was 59.09% (39/66). Conclusion Central venous stenosis of the maintenance hemodialysis patients can affect the life of vascular access. For the patients with symptoms that can not be alleviated, active intervention is recommended. Intervention therapy is safe and effective for the patients with central venous stenosis. Meanwhile, the central venous catheterization shall be avoided if possible to reduce central venous stenosis in the patients with chronic kidney disease.
