Popis: | Background: There is no consensus of the optimal arterial and venous sizes on arteriovenous fistula (AVF) function and patency. The purpose of our study was to determine the influence of vein and artery sizes on maturation and patency in autologous first time AVF in a vascular access clinic of Mexican Social Security. Methods: Approved IRB single-center retrospective study in patients referred for their first AVF from 01/2018/ to 04/2020. Perianastomotic inner vein diameter and single inner artery diameter was recorded by duplex ultrasound. Outcomes were: failure to mature (FTM) and cumulative primary patency survival. Results: Eighty-six AVF’s were created (mean age 45.5 ± 15.1 years; 62.8% male; mean BMI 25.9 ± 4.3 kg/m2). About 86% were brachiocephalic AVF. Eight (8.1%) AVF had FTM. Mean follow-up was 19.7 ± 8.5 months. Two-year patency survival was 81.4%. FTM vein and artery diameters (2.1 ± 0.3 and 2.8 ± 0.7 mm respectively) were smaller than successful AVF’s (3.1 ± 0.9 and 3.5 ± 0.6 mm) ( p Conclusion: Vein diameter |
