Liposuction for Superficialization of Deep Hemodialysis Vascular Access: A Novel Application
Early experience with liposuction for superficialization of deep hemodialysis access is promising. This innovative solution has the possibility to improve outcomes and quality of life for patients living with ESRD and obesity. Our experience shows that this is a safe and effective technique to increase patient eligibility, enable successful and early cannulation, and decrease recovery time.
