Banding of an Overfunctioning Fistula with a Prosthetic Graft Segment

Subclavian steal syndrome in a hemodialysis patient after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of arteriovenous access

“…The traditional management of the high flow of an AVF generally involves either closure or banding. 8,9 The most commonly reported treatment is banding of the shunt vein with prosthetic graft segments. The main problems in this treatment, namely, the development of pre- and poststenotic dilatations and recurrence of high flow, are caused by slippage of the prosthetic graft segment.…”

Effectiveness of surgical banding for high flow in brachial artery-based hemodialysis vascular access

“…Several reports have been published on effective access flow reduction after banding for HFA; however, most reported few patients. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] Only two studies, reporting on nine and 22 patients, identified two recurrences during a 3-month follow-up. 1,22 Based on the present study, banding for a brachial artery-based HFA in young patients may not be the first-choice technique.…”

Complications of a High‐flow Access and Its Management

“…Partial suturing (plication) is performed just distal to the anastomosis using nonabsorbable sutures for a length of approximately 1‐3 cm . Alternatively, a prosthetic cuff can be placed around the fistula to narrow the inflow (Fig. ).…”
