Autologous Arteriovenous Fistula Creation for Haemodialysis in Small Children

A 11-years old female with growth problem and chronic renal failure was admitted for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) formation for long-term haemodialysis in the pediatric ward. During her hospital stay, continue to have a cuffed central venous catheter (CVC) as the first choice for vascular access. AVF the cubital artery vena cephalica was performed with a standard end-to-side anastomosis with a continuous running 8-0 prolene monofilament suture. The patient was discharged on the second post operative day, subsequent to a normal AVF primary patency. We recommend that vascular and pediatric Hemodialysis centers establish a strategy supporting AVF creation in small children when peritoneal dialysis is contraindicated and pre-emptive kidney transplantation is not feasible. *Correspondence to: Dragan Piljic, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, University Clinical Center Tuzla, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Tel: +38735303202; E-mail: dragan.piljic@dr.com
