[Management of complications of hemodialysis vascular accesses]

Abstract

Trombosis of the vascular access is the most frecuent complication among patients with chronic renal disease. From 1995 on we performed the percutaneous recanalization of the access and considered the procedure as the best option. We analized the results in the two groups of patients treated at different periods and emphasized the importance of the early diagnosis of the thrombosis in the last group. The importance of the information given by the radiologist to the surgeon pre and postoperatively is also stressed.
