What the procedure involves.
Expert vascular access surgery for hemodialysis including arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation, AV graft placement, and tunneled catheter insertion at specialized vascular surgery centers in China. Surgeons perform high volumes of these procedures with excellent patency rates. Pre-operative vascular mapping ensures optimal access placement for long-term dialysis success.
Step by step.
Vascular Mapping
Doppler ultrasound assessment of arterial and venous anatomy to plan optimal access site
Pre-Operative Preparation
Cardiac clearance, coagulation assessment, and surgical planning discussion
Access Creation Surgery
Microsurgical creation of arteriovenous fistula or graft placement under local or regional anesthesia
Maturation Monitoring
Serial ultrasound assessment of fistula development and hand exercises guidance
- High-volume surgeons with excellent success rates
- Advanced microsurgical techniques
- Comprehensive pre-operative vascular mapping
- Significantly lower cost than Western centers
- Access thrombosis or failure to mature
- Steal syndrome causing hand ischemia
- Infection at surgical site
- Need for revision surgery in some cases
