Comparison between autogenous brachial-brachial upper-arm elevated direct arteriovenous fistulas and prosthetic brachial-antecubital indirect forearm arteriovenous grafts

CONCLUSIONS: The primary patency and primary assisted patency rates of BVE were significantly better than those observed in AVGs, but the complication rates were similar. The appropriate procedure to provide vascular access should be determined by the individual patient's condition and the surgical skill of the operating surgeon.PMID:34058911 | DOI:10.1177/11297298211018020
