Item Comparison of the Early Term Complications and Patency Rates of the Standard (Parachute) and Diamond-Shaped End-To-Side Anastomosis Techniques in Arteriovenous Fistulas Created for Hemodialysis(2018) Yabanoglu, Hakan; Kus, Murat; Arer, Ilker Murat; Bali, Cagla; Avci, Tevfik; Akdur, Aydincan; Caliskan, Kenan; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1161-3369; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6529-7579; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2615-1918; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5225-959X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8726-3369; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8767-5021; 30060787; AAJ-7865-2021; AAJ-7870-2021; AAI-8790-2021; AAF-1698-2021; AAA-3068-2021; AAJ-7201-2021Objective: To compare the early-term patency and complication rates of the end-to-side anastomosis techniques parachute and diamond-shaped techniques in arteriovenous fistulas. Study Design: Prospective randomised study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of General Surgery, Adana Baskent University Application and Research Hospital, Adana, Turkey, between October 2014 and January 2015. Methodology: Patients with end stage renal disease who underwent arteriovenous fistula creation for hemodialysis were grouped into two according to the anastomosis technique performed. Group 1 was composed of the patients undergoing the standard parachute technique and Group 2 consisted of the patients operated with the diamond-shaped anastomosis technique. The two groups were compared with each other with respect to clinical and demographic data, operative and postoperative variables, and complication and patency rates. Results: A total of 56 patients underwent arteriovenous fistula creation. The overall complication rate was 12.5%. The early-term patency rate was higher in the diamond-shaped anastomosis technique than the standard parachute end-to-side anastomosis technique. Effective dialysis was established after 4 weeks in 48 (85.7%) patients in the overall study group, 23 (82.1%) in Group 1, and 25 (89.2%) in Group 2. However, there was no significant difference between both the techniques with respect to effectiveness of dialysis. Conclusion: Both end-to-side anastomosis techniques have their own advantages and disadvantages. Using a patient-specific suitable technique rather than a standard technique would be more appropriate in arteriovenous fistulas formation.Item Surgical Interventions for Late Complications of Arteriovenous Fistulas(2014) Belli, Sedat; Yabanoglu, Hakan; Aydogan, Cem; Parlakgumus, Alper; Yildirim, Sedat; Haberal, Mehmet; 25058786Our aim was to determine the most effective surgical treatment for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) complications after all other methods of salvage have failed. We evaluated 110 patients for 139 complications that occurred after the initial AVF placement and for whom surgical intervention was the last hope for retaining fistula access. Vascular steal syndrome and venous hypertension were the most common complications seen in our patients. The anastomoses of 17 of the vascular steal syndrome cases were narrowed either by stitches or by a polytetrafluoroethylene graft. The second most performed revision surgery was excision of the aneurysm and repair with primary suturing, followed by excision of the aneurysm and interposition grafting. Successful surgical outcomes were achieved in 111 of 139 procedures after revision surgery without constructing a new AVF. AVF salvage surgery is of paramount importance in order to increase the patency rate, which prolongs survival and increases the patient's quality of life.Item Impact of surgeon factor on radiocephalic fistula patency rates(2016) Arer, Ilker Murat; Yabanoglu, Hakan; 26900457Introduction: Hemodialysis with arteriovenous fistula (AVF) has been widely accepted treatment modality for patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Radiocephalic fistulas are considered to be the most desirable for the initial vascular access. The aim of this study is to investigate the surgeon factor on radiocephalic fistula patency rates. Methods: A total of 186 patients with diagnosis of CRF underwent Radiocephalic fistula for hemodialysis access were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to operating surgeon. Patients were evaluated according to demographic characteristics, secondary patency rates, second AVF creation and complications. Results: Mean age was 57.7 +/- 14.8 years. The most common etiology of CRF was idiopathic (66.6%). 40 (75.5%) patients in group 1 and 122 (91.7%) patients in group 2 were pre-dialysis patients (p < 0.05). Overall secondary patency rate was 77.4%. Patients in group 1 and group 2 have secondary patency rates of 83% and 75.2%, respectively (p = 0.458). Second AVF creation was done in 2 (3.8%) patients in group 1 and 23 (17.3%) patients in group 2 (p < 0.05). Postoperative complication rate was 9.6%. Conclusion: Operating surgeon is not a major factor of secondary patency in radiocephalic arteriovenous fistulas. (C) 2015 The Authors.
