    End-Stage Vascular Access: Direct Intra-atrial Insertion of a Dialysis Catheter
    (Başkent Üniversitesi, 2008-06) Wales, Lucy; Hakim, Nadey S.; Dosani, Tariq; Power, Albert; Anderson, Jon R.
    Central venous occlusions are a frequent problem in hemodialysis patients. We describe the case of a patient with end-stage vascular access in whom we successfully inserted a direct intra-atrial dialysis line during coronary artery bypass grafting. This technique could be a significant contribution to patients in whom alternative vascular access options are exhausted.

    Justifying a Third Pancreas Transplant: a Case Report
    (Başkent Üniversitesi, 2008-03) Wales, Lucy; Hakim, Nadey S.; Mustafa, Nazar; Dosani, Tariq; Canelo, Ruben
    Early pancreas graft failure after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant can occur in up to 20% of recipients. Results after pancreas retransplant continue to improve, with results comparable to primary pancreas transplants. We describe an unusual case of a third pancreas transplant in which a remnant of a previous arterial Y-graft was used for the arterial anastomosis, and we discuss the factors used to justify the decision to do a third pancreas transplant.
