Plain versus drug-eluting balloon angioplasty in the treatment of non-thrombotic hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula stenosis: results from a single center comparative retrospective analysis
Our study confirms DEB is a safe and effective treatment of dysfunctional AVF. We demonstrate higher primary patency rates in DEB than PBA at 6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months. However, no statistically significant were detected between the two groups in mid-term follow-up.
