Experiments were performed on obligatory bipeds to study the effects of an arteriovenous fistula on a devascularized ischemic limb. Retrograde flow of arterial blood entering the venous system by way of an arteriovenous fistula was demonstrated. Venous valves appeared not to interfere with retrograde arterial flow. The data from these experiments indicate that a "Y" type arteriovenous fistula can lead to functional revascularization in the ischemic limb with arterial obstruction. The dual mechanism of retrograde arterial flow in venous channels and the stimulation of collateral flow adjacent to the fistula seemed to be critical factors. Since a peripheral arteriovenous fistula is a potent stimulus to arterial collateralization in the extremity, its application is worthy of consideration in certain selected patients with advanced and otherwise inoperable arterial occlusive disease.  相似文献

Revascularization of severely ischemic limbs was performed on 212 limbs of 156 patients by creating an arteriovenous fistula between the arterial trunk proximal to the obliteration and a deep venous trunk of the ischemic limb, constricting the venous trunk proximal to the anastomosis by two thirds of its original diameter, ligating rami communicans and small tributaries of the deep vein distal to the fistula. The results of experimental and clinical studies showed that the ischemic limb was quickly revascularized and the cardiac function was not damaged after the operation, and the result is more satisfactory than that of arteriovenous reversal by stages.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate mortality and morbidity rates and long-term outcome of patients who underwent emergency treatment of abdominal aortic prosthetic graft infection. Between January 1984 and December 1993, 18 men aged fifty-nine +/- sixteen years were operated on as an emergency for an acute life-threatening complication of aortic prosthetic graft infection. The grafts had been implanted for abdominal aortic aneurysm in 9 patients and aortoiliac occlusive disease in 9, from one to one hundred seventy months previously. Five (28%) patients presented with a hemorrhagic shock due to a fistula between the vascular reconstruction and the small bowel (4 patients) or the right ureter (1 patient) and 13 (72%) had generalized sepsis. The grafts were always radically explanted. Extraanatomic revascularization procedures included 6 axillopopliteal and 12 axillofemoral bypass grafts. Operative mortality was 39% (7 patients), and 3 (9%) limbs were amputated within thirty days. Two (11%) patients died after seven and twelve months, respectively, of septic complications, and 1 (5%) patient died after six months from an unrelated cause. Eight (73%) patients are still alive at a mean follow-up of fifty +/- thirty-four months, but in 3 the extraanatomic bypass was removed for infection and 5 major amputations were performed. Two-year survival and limb salvage rates were 44% and 50%, respectively. Aortic prosthetic graft infections that require emergent treatment continue to demonstrate high early and late mortality and limb loss rates despite aggressive intervention and limb salvage procedures. Newer methods of managing these complications should continue to be investigated.  相似文献

In the absence of adequate autogenous vein for tibial artery bypass in limb salvage surgery, the use of prosthetic grafts with a distal anastomotic vein cuff or patch has shown promising results. Here, we describe how the Florester Internal Vessel Occluder (Meadox UK, Bedfordshire, UK) can facilitate the construction of a distal anastomotic vein cuff.  相似文献

The authors believe this to be the first published case in which a deep hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass was used to facilitate resection of a large parenchymal arteriovenous fistula. The use of this procedure facilitated resection of the lesion by allowing compression and manipulation of large venous varices that were overlying the deeper arterial feeding vessels. The surgical rationale, technique, and intra- and postoperative management are discussed.  相似文献

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of arteriovenous fistulas combined with varying degrees of stenosis on distal bypass hemodynamics and Doppler spectral parameters. METHODS: In an in vitro flow model bypass stenoses causing 30%, 55%, and 70% diameter reduction were induced 10 cm upstream of a fistula with low outflow resistance. Flow and intraluminal pressure were measured proximal to the stenosis and downstream of the fistula. The waveform parameters peak systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity, pulsatility index, and pulse rise time were determined from midstream Doppler spectra obtained 10 cm downstream of the fistula. All measurements were carried out with open and clamped fistula. RESULTS: At 30% diameter reducing stenosis opening of the fistula induced a 12% systolic pressure drop across the stenosis but had no adverse effect on the Doppler waveform parameters. At 55% stenosis the pressure drop increased from 16% to 31% after fistula opening. This increased pressure drop was associated with a further reduction in peak systolic velocity, a decrease in pulsatility index, and an enhanced pulse rise time prolongation. Fistula opening at 70% stenosis increased the systolic pressure drop from 31% to 48% and had significant impact on all waveform parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Distal arteriovenous fistulas enhance pressure loss across stenoses and affect downstream velocity waveform configuration. The presence of a combined fistula and a stenosis mimics the distal hemodynamic conditions of a more severe stenosis. Assessment of the hemodynamic impact of fistulas must be undertaken in the evaluation of in situ vein bypass stenoses.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: A rare but serious complication of angioaccess surgery for hemodialysis is the so called steal syndrome presenting as ischemia distal to an arteriovenous fistula. The main problem of various surgical techniques to correct steal is subsequent thrombosis of the fistula or persistence of distal ischemia. INTERVENTIONS: This paper describes an unknown technique for correction of ischemic steal consisting of ligation of the artery just distal to the take-off of the fistula and arterial bypass from the artery proximal to the take-off of the fistula to the artery distal to ligation. PATIENTS: Six patients with chronic renal insufficiency (3 male, 3 female) with patent upper arm cephalic fistulas presented with severe hand ischemia. RESULTS: Symptoms improved in all 6 patients immediately after operation. Successful hemodialysis could be maintained using the original fistula. CONCLUSIONS: The described technique is maybe the procedure of choice for the correction of fistula induced ischemic steal.  相似文献

Aortic graft fistula is a rare and life-threatening complication after aortic reconstruction. The incidence ranges from 0.5 to 4%, and even if the diagnosis and treatment is appropriate, the results of surgery are poor: mortality rate ranges from 14 to 70%. The optimal method of treatment is still controversial; prosthetic removal and extra-anatomic bypass has been advocated as the standard method, but more recently, because the high mortality rate associated with this procedure, some have prompted to recommend in situ aortic graft replacement as a more successful treatment. Personal experience with incidence (0.7%) outcome and mortality (57%) in 7 patients treated over a period of 6 years (1990-1996) is reported. Results from this group are compared with another group (6 patients) previously treated (1975-1982) for the same pathology. Our results after 10 years, show the same incidence (0.7 vs 0.6%) and an elevated and unchanged mortality (57 vs 66%). Better results in the management of aorto-enteric fistulas could be achieved with the removal of infected infrarenal aortic prosthetic grafts and in situ homografts replacement.  相似文献

Brescia-Cimino arteriovenous fistulas are the most common vascular accesses in hemodialysis patients. Arterial blood pressure inside the vein and repeated punctures cause progressive sclerosis of the vessel wall and stenosis or occlusion are the final outcome. Percutaneous dilatation is an effective method to preserve arteriovenous fistulas function. From January 1991 through December 1992, eleven dilatations were performed in 10 patients (7 women and 3 men, mean age: 55 years) using a Zijlstra dedicated catheter provided with multiple infusion holes, which allows long dilatation times and therefore progressive wall distention. A high-pressure balloon yields better results in case of stiff and diffuse stenosis. The immediate results of the maneuver were good in all patients. One acute thrombosis of the fistula was observed a few hours after the procedure, and a second dilatation was performed in a patient 8 months after the first one. Mean arteriovenous fistula patency time was 6 months. Finally, a critical review of the international literature on the subject is made and the value of dilatation in the treatment of fistula stenosis is reported; the necessity to use new dedicated catheters in also stressed.  相似文献

A case of axillary vein thrombosis in a young man was treated by means of a cephalic vein cross-over bypass graft. A temporary arteriovenous fistula performed in the antecubital fossa resulted in a reasonable enlargement of the graft and prevented its occlusion in the critical postoperative period until healing of the intima resulted. The swelling disappeared and the patient, who was completely incapacitated functionally prior to the operation, resumed normal activity.  相似文献

Considering the increasing number of patients with chest pain who undergo routine coronary artery arteriography, coronary artery aneurysm may be found more frequently. To know how to manage these aneurysms, we must understand their possible complications. The aneurysms can produce symptoms of angina or acute myocardial infarction by total thrombosis of the aneurysm and vessel, embolism to the distal vessel, or progressive enlargement and encroachment upon the distal vessel until it is occluded. Moreover, the aneurysm may enlarge and rupture into the free pericardium or produce a fistula by eroding into a chamber of the heart. The case described herein may represent the first reported case of a coronary artery aneurysm eroding into a cardiac chamber and causing an arteriovenous fistula. The treatment of choice is resection of the aneurysm, closure of the fistula, and re-establishment of continuity of the distal coronary artery with a saphenous vein bypass graft.  相似文献

Hemorrhage from the gastrointestinal tract of a young dog resulted in melena with concurrent anemia. Exploratory laparotomy revealed the hemorrhage originated from an arteriovenous fistula in the jejunum. Resection of the abnormal part of the jejunum was curative. The arteriovenous fistula in the dog was probably congenital in origin, but may have been the result of gastrointestinal tract trauma.  相似文献

PURPOSE: Modified anastomotic techniques utilizing autogenous vein-cuffs or patches have been devised with the hope of improving prosthetic graft patency. The mechanisms of the presumed improvement in patched anastomoses have never been elucidated and remain speculative. We characterized the healing response of the Taylor vein patch in prosthetic arteriovenous fistulae in a canine model of intimal hyperplasia. METHODS: Six adult dogs underwent placement of bilateral (6 patched, 6 control) 4-mm diameter expanded polytetrafluoroethylene loop femoral artery-vein fistulae. Serial duplex ultrasound examinations confirmed graft patency until explant at 6 weeks. Differential light microscopy with computerized image analysis was performed on serial 5-microm sections. Intimal thickness through the venous anastomosis and outflow veins of Taylor patch and control (nonpatched) grafts were compared. Cell type-specific immunocytochemical antibody stains for smooth muscle cells (alpha SMC actin) and endothelial cells (von Willebrand factor) were performed. RESULTS: Eleven of 12 grafts remained patent for 6 weeks, 1 control graft thrombosed. Mean duplex-derived peak systolic velocities of patched (96 cm/sec) and control (108 cm/sec) grafts were similar. Microscopy revealed more intimal pannus anastomotic suture line ingrowth in controls (mean thickness = 178 microm) than Taylor patched grafts (mean 147 microm, p = 0.0002). Significantly less intimal thickening was present in the outflow vein of patched (mean thickness = 90 microm) versus control grafts (mean 195 microm, P <0.0001). The intima maintained a single cell layer of vWF + endothelial cells, while the majority of the cells comprising the lesion expressed alpha SMC actin. CONCLUSION: Perianastomotic pannus is primarily composed of intimal smooth muscle cells. Neointimal thickening is significantly reduced in prosthetic arteriovenous fistulae created with the Taylor vein patch in a canine model. Reduction in perianastomotic intimal thickening may explain the reported clinical improvement in prosthetic bypass graft patency when modified with vein patch techniques.  相似文献

To evaluate the effectiveness of venous grafting, we reviewed the management and clinical course of 28 patients (21 males and seven females) who underwent 29 reconstructions of large veins for benign disease. There were 12 patients with superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome, two with subclavian vein thrombosis, and 15 with occlusion of the inferior vena cava (IVC) or iliac veins. One of these patients underwent both IVC and SVC reconstructions. Reconstruction of the SVC was performed with spiral saphenous vein graft (SSVG) in nine patients and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) in three. All seven straight SSVGs had documented patency at a median of 7 months (2 weeks to 5 years) after reconstruction. Six patients had complete relief of symptoms. Two patients with bifurcated SSVG had early occlusion of one graft limb. Two of the three ePTFE grafts needed early thrombectomy. One graft reoccluded at 6 months and two were patent at 2 and 5 years. The two subclavian vein reconstructions with axillary-jugular ePTFE grafts with an arteriovenous fistula had documented early patency. Both patients had rapid resolution of symptoms. The IVC or iliac vein was reconstructed with ePTFE graft in 11 patients, SSVG in three, and Dacron in one. A femorofemoral arteriovenous fistula was added in eight patients with ePTFE grafts. Seven of the 11 ePTFE grafts had documented patency at the last follow-up (median 9 months; range 2 weeks to 5 years). None of the three SSVGs had documented long-term patency. The one Dacron cavoatrial graft occluded at 3 years. A straight SSVG continues to be our first choice for SVC replacement. Short, large-diameter ePTFE grafts perform the best in the abdomen. Femorocaval or long iliocaval grafts need an arteriovenous fistula to maintain patency. Long-term patency after closure of the fistula is still unknown. Femorocaval grafts with poor venous inflow have limited chance of success. Failed or failing grafts may be salvaged by early thrombectomy. Venous reconstruction to treat selected patients with symptoms with large vein occlusion continues to be a viable option.  相似文献

Primary arteriovenous fistulae remain the gold standard for hemodialysis access. The radiocephalic or Brescia-Cimino fistula is the autologous fistula of choice, with a primary success rate of nearly 93% and a 1-year patency rate of up to 82%. Alternative arteriovenous fistulae include the snuff box fistula and a brachiobasilic fistula with a 1-year patency rate of up to 90%. Complications include thrombosis, infection, arterial steal syndrome, venous hypertension, aneurysms, and congestive heart failure. Despite these complications, arteriovenous fistulae provide good long-term hemodialysis access.  相似文献

A 29-year-old nulliparous woman had development of hypertension, proteinuria, and congestive heart failure during the third trimester of her pregnancy. Her symptoms and cardiovascular changes were consistent with congestive heart failure and severe preeclampsia. The underlying pathophysiology was believed to be caused by the high-output state of pregnancy and by the increased peripheral vascular resistance of preeclampsia. The patient underwent an elective cesarean section, but her cardiovascular symptoms did not resolve. Soon after delivery, the patient was found to have an arteriovenous fistula of the right renal artery that caused the high-output cardiac state. Embolization and surgical removal of the arteriovenous fistula resulted in complete resolution of the patient's high-output heart failure. All previously reported cases of renal arteriovenous fistulas and malformations that have occurred during pregnancy are reviewed.  相似文献

The authors evaluate the indications, the hemodynamical aspects, the short and medium term results over their track record of 49 crossover bypass (44 dacron and 5 PTFE grafts) performed between 1981 and 1993. Crossover bypass grafts were mainly inserted for unilateral iliac arterial disease in order to avoid aortic manipulation. This procedure was particularly selected when in presence of: young patients (< 60 years old), high surgical risk, poor run-off, high risk of prosthetic infection, thrombosis and/or infection of orthotopic grafts. 3 ilio-iliac, 27 iliofemoral, 18 femorofemoral and 1 femoropopliteal bypass have been performed. The postoperative resting pressure Index increase was highly significant in recipient limbs. There wasn't perioperative mortality; during the follow up (mean 24.4 months) no amputation of recipient limb was observed. 4 patients died of A.M.I. and 1 of neoplastic disease. Late cumulative patency rate was 81% at 2 years and 67.3% at 3 years. These values rise to 97.2% and 86.1% respectively when considering patients with "ideal" indication (excluding 7 patients operated on for complications of previous bypass grafts and 6 with extremely poor run-off). An accurate evaluation of the lesion topography and haemodynamic pattern of donor and recipient iliofemoral districts are stressed as key points for a correct surgical indication.  相似文献

Between January 1979 and December 1989, an end-to-end arteriovenous fistula for chronic haemodialysis was performed at the anatomical snuffbox in 140 patients with a mean age of 51 (range 14-81) years and at the wrist in 248 with a mean age of 53 (range 19-83) years. The choice of site depended on the characteristics of the vessels and on the arterial blood pressure. No operative mortality, major complications or side effects occurred. The primary median patency for the arteriovenous fistula at the anatomical snuffbox was 36 months with a patency rate of 77.3% at 1 year, 36.3% at 5 years and 18.9% at 10 years. For the arteriovenous fistula at the wrist the median patency was 64 months and the patency rate 75.5% at 1 year, 54.5% at 5 years and 30.7% at 10 years. The higher incidence of thromboses in the patients with a fistula in the snuffbox may reflect an excessive enthusiasm for this technique because of initially promising results.  相似文献

Fistulas between the abdominal aorta and renal vein are exceedingly rare. Diagnostic delays are not unusual. Correction can be extremely difficult because of anatomical distortion and size of the arterialized veins. A young woman with such a fistula following a gunshot wound is presented. Four years following injury, the fistula was repaired successfully during intentional arrest of the circulation for 7 minutes. This was accomplished with deep hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass. No serious problems occurred during the operation. The patient tolerated the procedure well and has been relieved of her symptoms completely. Most patients with traumatic or spontaneous arteriovenous fistulas can be managed safely and effectively by conventional operative techniques. In selected situations, the risk of total circulatory arrest and deep hypothermia may be less than the risk of uncontrollable bleeding inherent in conventional techniques. Suggested indications for use of total circulatory arrest in vascular surgery are (1) inability to achieve vascular control by more conventional means, (2) massive distention of regional veins as occurrs in well established fistulas of the trunk, (3) one or more prior corrective attempts with use of conventional techniques, and (4) anticipated anatomical distortion and/or multiple abnormal vascular communications. This technique is a valuable approach to the correction of otherwise inoperable cardiovascular lesions.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Thrombosis is the most frequent late complication of surgical procedures in the aortofemoral area. In the presence of aortobifemoral bypass, graft limb occlusion generally occurs within the first two years. Various techniques have been proposed to revascularize the ischemic limb. Personal experience in the treatment of occlusions of aorto-femoral bypasses branch by femoro-femoral bypasses is reported and the immediate and long-term results are analyzed. METHODS: The study was retrospective and the medium follow-up was 51 months (1-14 years). The patients were all operated from 1976 to 1995 in the Division of Vascular Surgery of the University of Bari. The group consisted of 40 patients affected by unilateral occlusion that occurred after aorto-femoral bypass. The femoro-femoral bypass was performed using non-ringed 6 or 8 mm Dacron prostheses; the proximal anastomosis was made a few cm above the femoral anastomosis of the permeable branch of the existing aorto-bifemoral bypass and the distal anastomosis on the cross-leg profunda femoris. Postoperative follow-up consisted of clinical examination, continuous wave Doppler examination or US-color-Doppler scan in order to assess the permeability of the graft. RESULTS: The immediate results showed 2 and long-term results 9 occlusions of the bypass. No perioperative mortality was observed. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion the authors consider the use of femoro-femoral bypass indicated in a high number of patients affected by unilateral occlusion of the aorto-bifemoral bypass.  相似文献
