“…27 Patients with prolonged time to access cannulation were those requiring staged transpositions, interventions for maturation, staged lipectomy, or vein elevation. 28 Twenty-eight patients had AVFs that failed and were not salvaged during the study period. Among those individuals with a failed access, nine had a new successful AVF created, one changed to peritoneal dialysis, one received a successful transplant, five were lost to follow-up, and the rest continued catheter-based dialysis treatments.…”

New Insights into Dialysis Vascular Access: What Is the Optimal Vascular Access Type and Timing of Access Creation in CKD and Dialysis Patients?

Optimal vascular access planning begins when the patient is in the predialysis stages of CKD. The choice of optimal vascular access for an individual patient and determining timing of access creation are dependent on a multitude of factors that can vary widely with each patient, including demographics, comorbidities, anatomy, and personal preferences. It is important to consider every patient's ESRD life plan (hence, their overall dialysis access life plan for every vascular access creation or placement). Optimal access type and timing of access creation are also influenced by factors external to the patient, such as surgeon experience and processes of care. In this review, we will discuss the key determinants in optimal access type and timing of access creation for upper extremity arteriovenous fistulas and grafts.

“…This group of patients has an increased risk of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) failure due to advanced arteriosclerosis but mostly due to reduced accessibility of forearm vessels because of excessive overlying fat tissue that causes miscannulation and needling difficulties resulting in local infiltration, infection, and aneurysmatic vein dilatation. 115,116 Superficial AVF is necessary for successful dialysis access. Surgical techniques, using vein elevation/stretching/transposition and repositioning are indicated for deeply located or tortuous veins.…”

Functional and Therapeutic Indications of Liposuction

Liposuction is the most common cosmetic surgical procedure worldwide. It has evolved from being designed primarily for body contouring to becoming essential adjunct to various other aesthetic procedures, greatly enhancing their outcome. Despite its hard clear differentiation between an aesthetic and therapeutic indication for some pathologic conditions, liposuction has been increasingly applied to a gamut of disorders as a therapeutic tool or to improve function. In fact, liposuction has ceased to define a specific procedure and became synonymous to a surgical technique or tool same as the surgical knife, laser, electrocautery, suture material, or even wound-dressing products. At present, there seems to be an enormous potential for the application of the basic liposuction technique in ablative and reconstructive surgery outside the realm of purely aesthetic procedures. The present review contemplates the various nonaesthetic applications of liposuction, displaying the enormous potentials of what should be considered a basic surgical technique rather than a specific aesthetic procedure. Implications of this new definition of liposuction should induce third-party public payers and insurance companies to reconsider their remuneration and reimbursement policies.
