An AV fistula is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein, and is sometimes surgically created to help with haemodialysis treatment. In these cases, a shunt graft is inserted to aid the treatment. Unfortunately, sometimes the shunt will fail, known as graft malfunction.
The vascular system includes arteries, veins and capillaries (which connect arteries and veins). An acquired arteriovenous fistula (AV fistula) is a condition where there is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein. Normally, blood flows from arteries into capillaries and then into veins.
The most important complications of fistulae for HD are lymphedema, infection, aneurysm, stenosis, congestive heart failure, steal syndrome, ischemic neuropathy and thrombosis. In HD patients, the most common cause of vascular access failure is neointimal hyperplasia.
An AV fistula is a surgically placed "shunt"; that is, an artery is directly sutured to a vein. An artery is a high-pressure vessel that carries blood away from the heart and delivers nutrients and oxygen to the tissues.
Arteriovenous fistulas may be present at birth (congenital) or they may occur later in life (acquired). Causes of arteriovenous fistulas include: Injuries that pierce the skin. An arteriovenous fistula may result from a gunshot or stab wound that occurs on a part of the body where a vein and artery are side by side.
AVFs differ from arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in that AVMs are found within the tissue of the brain or spinal cord, but AVFs are found in the coverings of the brain or spinal cord, such as the dura mater or arachnoid.
There are 3 basic types of AVF dialysis: Radial Cephalic fistula. Brachial Cephalic. Brachial Basilic Transposition.
An AV graft requires the patient to take good care of the access point, as it might be prone to complications otherwise. The third option is the arteriovenous fistula, deemed the best option by most doctors. Rather than using a plastic tube, a fistula is created by connecting an artery directly to a vein.
What is a fistula. An arteriovenous fistula, or AVF, is a vessel that is formed by joining a vein to an artery in your arm during an operation to form an accessible blood vessel that gives increased flows of blood that are adequate for dialysis.
The abnormal narrowing of a blood vessel is called stenosis. Stenosis slows and reduces blood flow through your AV fistula, causing problems with the quality of your dialysis treatment, prolonged bleeding after puncture, or pain in the fistula. Stenosis can also lead to a blocked or clotted access.
