Introduction: Vascular access for hemodialysis of choice remains the Arteriovenous Fistulas (AVF) of the Upper Limb, the creation of Lower Limb (LL) arteriovenous fistula is an alternative to the depletion of vascular access sites to the upper limb. The most used surgical technique is the transposition of the femoral vein; recent and poorly known technique. Material and methods: Through two clinical observations, we report our experience in the creation of exotic vascular approaches (AVF-LL). Discussion: The complete exhaustion of the veins of both upper limbs and the presence of venous disease occlusive central veins is a major problem in the creation of FAV upper limb, the most commonly used alternative to the lower limb is the transposition of the femoral vein described for the first time in 2000 by Jackson. Conclusion: The depletion of vascular sites is a delicate problem, hence the interest of knowing how to use the tertiary vascular approaches, particularly fistulas of the lower limb.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
