Brief Summary

The aim of this work was to compare primary failure rates and the primary functional patency of one-stage vs two stage brachiobasilic fistulas to compare the two surgical techniques .

Detailed Description

In the last two decades, there have been concerted efforts by the National Kidney Foundation Dialysis Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKF-DOQI), and the Fistula First Breakthrough Initiative to decrease the use of prosthetic grafts and increase autogenous (native) arteriovenous fistula(AVF) creation for hemodialysis access. When considering vascular access for hemodialysis on the basis of patency, resistance to infection,and associated complications, Native AVF should be selected as the first choice whenever possible. If the cephalic vein in the upper arm is unusable for AVF construction, the basilic vein can be superficialized and anastomosed to the brachial artery at the elbow to form a brachiobasilic arteriovenous fistula (BB)AVF .

If a BB AVF is to be constructed,duplex ultrasound should be used to check the path and size of the basilic vein. It is also important to determine if an adequate length can be mobilized .

The BB fistulae can be formed in one stage or two stages. To date, limited and conflicting data exist regarding primary failure and the patency rates of one-stage and two-stage procedures. Each procedure has advantages and disadvantages Both one-stage and two-stage procedures have their advantages and disadvantages.

Which procedure results in improved outcomes remains unclear. However, the basic principle is to superficialize the basilic vein and make it amenable to needle puncture.

Study Groups

One stage group

The one-stage operation was performed under regional anesthesia. A 5-cm incision at the ante cubital fossa identifies the basilic vein. The incision was extended proximally, and the underlying deep fascia was opened. The basilic vein was mobilized up to its junction with the brachial vein. The median cutaneous nerve of the forearm was carefully dissected and preserved. After side branches were ligated, the basilic vein was tunnelled subcutaneously, with a Roberts' forceps maintaining its axial orientation.An end-to-side arteriovenous anastomosisto the brachial artery was performed

two stage group

he first stage of the two-stage procedure was performed under local anesthesia by formation of the arteriovenous anastomosis with minimal disturbance of the basilic vein. After 4 to 6 weeks, a flow assessment of the AVF by duplex scanning was made to determine if revision of the anastomosis was necessary at the second stage. The second stage was performed under regional anesthesia. The entire length of the basilic vein was mobilized, a"subcutaneous flap" was created, and the vein was positioned anterolaterally. Usually, a further 2 weeks was required before the AVF can be used
