Surgical revision to salvage degeneration of hemodialysis access is effective but is associated with a high burden of reinterventions
Despite a high rate of reinterventions, patients who underwent an open revision to salvage their av-access had significantly reduced dialysis catheter utilization and few required new surgical access creations. AV-access salvage should be considered for failing AV-access whenever possible to mitigate dialysis catheter-associated complications.
