Abstract

Purpose: The development of upper extremity ischemia to an arteriovenous fistula created for hemodialysis access remains a significant complication. The aim of our study was to evaluate the surgical management of patients who developed ischemia in the upper extremity carrying the dialysis angioaccess. Methods: Between May 1999 and April 2005, we performed 412 vascular Access procedures, and eight of them subsequently operated on due to upper extremity ischemia. There were five male and three female patients ranging in age between 26 and 56 years, with a mean age of 39,1±1,2 years. Results: All patients with distal ischemia had brachiocephalic or brachobasilic arteriovenous fistula. Four patients were treated only ligation, three patients by ligation and brachial artery aneurysm resection. Arterial continuity was achieved end to end arterial anastomosis in one, saphenous vein interposition graft in one and PTFE graft in one patients. The remaining one patient with cephalic vein aneurysm was treated by ligation and venous aneurysm resection. Conclusion: Complications of arteriovenous fistula, such as aneurysmatic changes, thrombosis and steal syndrome may lead to upper extremity distal ischemia. Ligation of the fistula causes improvement of the symptoms. But in patients with aneurysm, ligation should be combined with aneurismal resection and arterial continuity should be achieved. Further prospective studies will be required to demonstrate the important risk factors, and prevent or minimize the occurrence of ischemic complications.

Özet

Amaç: Hemodiyaliz amacıyla açılan arteriyovenöz fistüllerde distal iskemi ender görülen ciddi bir komplikasyondur. Amacımız arteriyovenöz fistül komplikasyonu olarak gelişen üst ekstremite iskemilerinde cerrahi tedavinin sonuçlarını değerlendirmektir. Yöntem: Mayıs 1999 ile Nisan 2005 tarihleri arasında 412 hastada arteriyovenöz fistül nedeniyle cerrahi girişim uyguladık. Bunlardan sekiz hastada arteriyovenöz fistül komplikasyonu olarak distal iskemi gelişmiştir. Hastaların yaşları 26 ile 56 arasında değişmekte (ortalama 39±1,2 yıl) idi. Bulgular: Distal iskemi gelişmesine neden olan tüm arteriyovenöz fistüller brakiyal arterle sefalik veya bazilik ven arasında açılmıştı. Hastalardan dördünde sadece fistül ligatüre edildi. Üç hastada fistül ligatüre edildikten sonra brakiyal arterde gelişen anevrizmalar rezeke edildi ve arteriyel devamlılık bir hastada brakiyal arterin uç uca anastomozu ile, bir hastada araya konulan safen ven grefti ile ve diğer hasta da ise PTFE interpozisyon grefti ile sağlandı. Bir hastada ise fistül ligatüre edildi ve sefalik vende gelişen anevrizma rezeke edildi. Cerrahi sonrası tüm hastalarda iskemi bulguları kayboldu. Sonuçlar: Arteriyovenöz fistül komplikasyonu olarak anevrizmatik gelişmeler, tromboz veya çalma sendromu ve bunların sonucu distal iskemi gelişebilir. Fistülün ligasyonu ile genellikle olumlu sonuç alınırsa da anevrizmal gelişme varsa anevrizmalar rezeke edilerek arterin devamlılığı sağlanmalıdır. İskemik komplikasyonları önlemek veya minimal seviyeye indirmek ve önemli risk faktörlerini belirlemek için geniş serilere dayanan prospektif çalışmalara gereksinim olduğunu düşünüyoruz.
