Title: [Axillo-axillary contralateral arteriovenous anastomosis with interposition of a Diastat-Gore prosthesis for dialysis]. Author: Utíkal P, Bachleda P, Sekanina Z. Journal: Rozhl Chir; 1998 Jan; 77(1):38-41. PubMed ID: 9623309. Abstract: The authors give an account of their experience with establishment of an arteriovenous fistula for dialysis using interposition with a DIASTAT-GORE prosthesis between the axillary artery and the contralateral axillary or inner jugular vein and its localization on the anterior thoracic wall. The method is apt in patients with a primarily unsuitable or secondarily surgically exhausted autologous circulation of the upper extremities.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
