  • A new operation with inadequate Brescia fistulae for preservation of more proximal veins.

    Oakes DD, Adams GA, Sherck JP, Guest SS. J Vasc Surg. 2002; 36 (2): 346-50

    The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that venous outflow of a Brescia fistula that is patent but unusable for one of a variety of reasons can provide adequate drainage to sustain a prosthetic arteriovenous graft based on the brachial artery, thus sparing more proximal veins for future access procedures.
