ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the outcome of a short interposition using a small-diameter prosthetic graft as a flow-limiting procedure to manage symptomatic high-flow arteriovenous fistula (AVF).MethodsA retrospective review of medical records on a case series was conducted. From June 2004 to April 2017, there were 25 patients with clinical symptoms of high output cardiac failure and progressive dilation of aneurysmal fistula vein due to high-flow AVF (≥1.5 L/min) who underwent short interposition with a 5-mm prosthetic graft at Saitama Medical Center. The primary outcome was the relief of clinical symptoms; other outcome measures included technical success, surgical complications, patency of vascular access, and postoperative changes in local and systemic hemodynamics as assessed by Doppler ultrasound.ResultsTwenty-five patients underwent short interposition for cardiac indications (n = 16) and aneurysmal dilation (n = 9). The technical success rate was 100%. The clinical symptoms were relieved in 24 patients (96.0%). Mean reduction in access blood flow was 52.4%. Cumulative primary unassisted patency rates (± standard error) at 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years were 76.2% ± 9.3%, 70.4% ± 10.3%, and 58.1% ± 11.6%, respectively. Secondary patency rates (± standard error) at 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years were 81.8% ± 8.2%, 71.5% ± 9.9%, and 71.5% ± 9.9%, respectively. Complications included access occlusion due to late thrombosis (n = 5 [21.7%]) and graft infection (n = 1 [4.3%]) in the median follow-up period of 3.9 years.ConclusionsShort interposition with a prosthetic graft is a simple, effective, and durable treatment option for end-stage renal disease patients with cardiac symptoms and progressive dilation of the fistula vein due to high-flow AVF, offering clinical symptom resolution while preserving the autologous behavior of the initial access.
