Early inadequate venous flow volume after technically successful balloon angioplasty of radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula: causes and follow-up results

CONCLUSIONS: Low venous flow after PTA has been primarily associated with free-floating thrombi. Routine post-procedural DUS detects low venous flow, high RI, and small thrombi, providing evidence to initiate medical treatment that may prevent early AVF re-dysfunction.PMID:37843321 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202310_33933
