Drug eluting balloon angioplasty for assisted maturation of failing fistulae.

CONCLUSIONS: Drug-eluting balloon angioplasty was to salvage nonmaturing fistulae with durable results in complex patients where conventional treatment had previously failed. Drug-eluting balloons may provide a useful treatment option for patients prone to multiple access failures due accelerated neo-intimal hyperplasia. PMID: 29147997 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
