Dialysis access surgeons: You’re ligating an AVF that is no longer needed, and is NOT infected, has no steal or high flow. What is your technique? Please explain. @robshahverdyan @ASDINNews @cfbechara @CKeithOzaki

You have a patient w/ ESKD, 3-yr hx of PD and a recently failed kidney transplant. The patient has severe psoriasis and now needs an AV access. Surgeons 👋🏽 - does this give you pause? - influence your technique? - make you lean toward autogenous vs. prosthetic access?

📣 Dialysis nurses, nephrologists and other HD Vascular Access enthusiasts - 4 w/o matured #Snuffbox #AVF - would you transpose, elevate, lipectomy, liposuction (whatever -bring the vein close to the skin), or leave it to nephrologist who insists they do cannulae deep veins?

Whether to do a venogram or not wasn’t really the point of this post. 😂 This patient had been on dialysis for nearly 10 years and had had PICC lines. In addition, some surgeons want one before they’re willing to operate.

25 yo ESKD pt referred for eval for HD access after 9 yrs of PD & eventual sclerosing peritonitis. No previous AV access. - broke L arm at age 13 - not on tx list, so you want to start distal - you find a great cephalic vein - you see these: #orthotwitter @RenalFellowNtwk

Endo approach to the stuck tunneled dialysis CVC. No 🔪 needed. • Amplatz safety guidewire through venous port & parked in IVC • Guidewire through arterial port w/ serial PTA using 5 x 4 Sterling from first rib/clav to venotomy • 🥁…..CVC out!

A patient with 2+ yr old LIJ tunneled catheter is referred to for CVC removal. The CVC is unable to be removed d/t “tissue adhesions at the level of the clavicle”. Do you:

Seems that noting keloids on a patient isn’t a concern for some of you when planning an AV access. This is the same patient’s upper arm AVG. Exquisitely tender to touch. Abdominal keloids from incisional scars recently required excision & XRT. Thoughts now? #dermtwitter
