Endovascular arteriovenous fistulas (eAVFs) are a new and less invasive type of creation for dialysis access. The anastomosis for eAVFs often occurs between the ipsilateral proximal radial artery and vein or proximal ulnar artery and vein. As eAVF creations are in locations that are not traditionally used for surgical AVF creations, the question of how to approach reversal of these fistulas arises. Here we present a case of closure of an ulnar artery to ulnar vein eAVF.
血管内动静脉瘘(eAVF)是一种用于透析通路创建的新型且侵入性较小的方式。eAVF的吻合通常发生在同侧桡动脉近端与静脉之间或尺动脉近端与静脉之间。由于eAVF的创建位置并非传统上用于手术创建动静脉瘘的位置,因此出现了如何处理这些瘘管逆转的问题。在此,我们报告一例尺动脉至尺静脉eAVF闭合的病例。
