                            <p>OBJECTIVE: Life expectancy and quality of life in hemodialysis patients are directly proportional to the effective use of the vascular access way. Complications in arteriovenous fistulas are related to morbidity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of early and long-term patency of arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) and the results of surgical treatment of patients with chronic kidney failure.MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 152 AVFs used for vascular access from their non-dominant upper extremities for hemodialysis in 121 patients between January 2019 and January 2020.RESULTS: There were 68 (44,7%) cimino-brescia, 62 (40,7%) brachiocephalic, and 22 (14,4%) brachiobasilic AVFs. Complication in acute stage was found in 18 AVFs (11,8%) and late stage immatureness and the development of complication was found in 11 AVFs (/,1%). Acute complications of distal fistula were found 21%, acute complications of proximal fistula were found 12% and detected as statistically significantly higher (p&amp;lt;0.05). In the late period, there was no statistical difference between the failure rates of AVFs opened proximally and AVFs opened distally (p&amp;gt;0.05). Complications were detected in 29 (18.8%) of AVFs that were opened.CONCLUSIONS: The success rate of AVFs formed in the distal of the extremity was found to be lower than those opened in proximal localizations. However, in order to protect the brachial region by using it in the future, AVF applications opened primarily to the distal regions should be the first choice.</p></trans-abstract>

Arteriyovenöz fistülde(AVF) oluşan komplikasyonlar morbidite ile ilişkilidir. Çalışmamızda, kronik böbrek yetmezliği hastalarında arteriyovenöz fistüllerin bölgelerine dikkat ederek akut ve kronik patensi oranlarını ve cerrahi tedavi sonuçlarını değerlendirmeyi amaçladık.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: 2019 Ocak ve 2020 Ocak tarihleri arasında 121 hastada retrospektif olarak hemodiyaliz için dominant olmayan üst ekstremitelerinden açılan vasküler akses amacıyla kullanılan 152 adet AVF’i değerlendirdik.BULGULAR: Cimino-Brescia 68 (%44,7), brakiosefalik 62 (%40,7), brakiobazilik 22 (%14,4) AVF operasyonları uyguladık. Akut dönem komplikasyon 18 AVF’de (%11,8), geç dönem olgunlaşamama ve komplikasyon gelişmesi 11 AVF’de(%7,1) saptanmıştır. Distal fistül akut komplikasyonları %21, proksimal fistül akut komplikasyonları %12 saptanmış ve istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı olarak daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p&amp;lt;0.05). Geç dönemde, proksimalde açılan AVF’lerin ve distalde açılan AVF’lerin başarısız olma oranları arasında istatistiksel fark saptanmadı (p&amp;gt;0.05). Açılan AVF’lerin 29(%18,8)’inde komplikasyon geliştiği saptandı.SONUÇ: Ekstremitenin distalinde oluşturulan AVF‘lerin proksimal lokalizasyonlara açılanlara göre başarılı olma oranlarını daha az olarak saptadık; ancak brakial bölgenin ilerideki dönemlerde kullanılması suretiyle korumak amacıyla öncelikli olarak distal bölgelere açılan AVF uygulamaları ilk tercih olmalıdır.</p></abstract>
