Modified human umbilical vein graft arteriovenous fistulae as a source of angioaccess in maintenance hemodialysis

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Forty-six modified human umbilical vein graft arteriovenous fistulae were used for maintenance hemodialysis in 45 patients with chronic renal failure. Complications were encountered in 15 of the 46 grafts after one to 24 months. In only one case did a graft become infected. The results show a significantly lower complication rate than for any other graft material.
