Arteriovenous (AV) Graft for Hemodialysis
An AV graft is a synthetic tube used to connect an artery and a vein when natural vessels are unsuitable for creating a traditional fistula. It provides a reliable access site for hemodialysis and is ideal for patients with small or compromised veins. Grafts offer quicker usability than fistulas, making them a vital option in many dialysis patients.
Expert Care for AV Graft Procedures
- Specialized vascular surgeons for graft placement
- Preoperative imaging for optimal graft site selection
- Use of high-quality biocompatible graft materials
- Quick turnaround to functional dialysis access
- Close follow-up and graft surveillance for long-term patency
How We Perform AV Graft Placement
Vascular Mapping
We assess your veins and arteries through imaging to determine the most effective graft site and configuration.
Precise Surgical Insertion
Our team inserts the synthetic graft securely between artery and vein with minimal invasiveness and optimal flow.
Postoperative Support
We provide recovery guidance and monitor for early complications or infection risk at the graft site.
Early Dialysis Access
AV grafts mature faster than fistulas, allowing patients to start hemodialysis sooner, usually within 2-3 weeks.
Graft Maintenance
We offer regular surveillance and prompt interventions like angioplasty for long-term graft functionality.
