We believe that narrowing the aneurysmal sac, instead of ligation, is a safe surgical technique that allows the continuity of the fistula.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Background: In this study, we investigated the results of the surgical treatment of the aneurysms before any complications develop in dialysis patients in whom arteriovenous fistula aneurysm has detected and the long term utilization of their fistulae.Methods: Eighteen patients (7 males, 11 females; mean age 47.5 years; range 32 to 75 years) in whom aneurysms of 4 cm or over developed and who were operated on for the purpose of hemodialysis in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery in Trabzon Numune Training and Research Hospital between September 2003 and February 2009, were evaluated retrospectively.
📊
Key Findings & Data:In 11 cases radiocephalic and in seven cases brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula were explored.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:We believe that narrowing the aneurysmal sac, instead of ligation, is a safe surgical technique that allows the continuity of the fistula.

Abstract

Background: In this study, we investigated the results of the surgical treatment of the aneurysms before any complications develop in dialysis patients in whom arteriovenous fistula aneurysm has detected and the long term utilization of their fistulae.Methods: Eighteen patients (7 males, 11 females; mean age 47.5 years; range 32 to 75 years) in whom aneurysms of 4 cm or over developed and who were operated on for the purpose of hemodialysis in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery in Trabzon Numune Training and Research Hospital between September 2003 and February 2009, were evaluated retrospectively. In 11 cases radiocephalic and in seven cases brachiocephalic arteriovenous fistula were explored. Surgical methods were determined during surgery by taking the structure of the patient's artery and vein into account.Results: All patients were discharged within the first 24 hours after surgery. After the procedure no complications such as surgical wound infection, hematoma, neurological damage, ischemia were observed. The mean followup after the resection was 39 months (range; 7-56 months).Conclusion: Arteriovenous fistula aneurysms should be treated before any complications develop. Surgical repair still remains the gold standard. We believe that narrowing the aneurysmal sac, instead of ligation, is a safe surgical technique that allows the continuity of the fistula.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada arteriyovenöz fistül anevrizması gelişen diyaliz hastalarında anevrizmaya bağlı komplikasyonlar gelişmeden anevrizmanın tamiri ve fistülün uzun dönem kullanılabilirliği araştırıldı.Çalışma planı: Eylül 2003 - Şubat 2009 tarihleri arasında Trabzon Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Kalp ve Damar Cerrahisi kliniğinde hemodiyaliz amacı ile açılan arteriyovenöz fistüllerde, 4 cm ve üzeri anevrizma gelişen 18 hasta (7 erkek, 11 kadın; ort. yaş 47.5 yıl; dağılım 32-75 yıl) geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. On bir olguda radyosefalik ve yedi olguda brakiyosefalik arteriyovenöz fistül açılmıştı. Cerrahi yönteme ameliyat sırasında hastaların arter ve ven yapısı dikkate alınarak karar verildi.Bulgular: Hastaların tümü ameliyat sonrası ilk 24 saat içinde taburcu edildi. Cerrahi işlem sonrası yara yeri enfeksiyonu, hematom, nörolojik hasar ya da iskemi gibi herhangi bir komplikasyon gözlenmedi. Ameliyat sonrası ortalama takip süresi 39 ay (dağılım; 7-56 ay) idi.Sonuç: Arteriyovenöz fistül anevrizmaları komplikasyon gelişmeden tedavi edilmelidir. Cerrahi onarım hala altın standart olarak yerini korumaktadır. Biz ligasyon yerine, anevrizma kesesinin daraltılarak fistülün devamlılığının sağlanmasının güvenli bir cerrahi yöntem olduğuna inanıyoruz.
