AV Fistula Surgery at City Dialysis Centre

AV Fistula Surgery at City Dialysis


AV Fistula Surgery is a vital procedure for patients requiring long-term hemodialysis. An arteriovenous (AV) fistula is a connection created between an artery and a vein in your arm, which provides easy access to your bloodstream for dialysis. At City Dialysis Centre, we specialize in creating AV fistulas by highly qualified CTVS surgeons with a high success rate, ensuring that our patients receive the best possible care and outcomes.

We have performed over 100 successful AV fistula surgeries, establishing ourselves as leaders in this essential surgical procedure. Our expert team, led by experienced CTVS surgeons and nephrologists, ensures that each patient is thoroughly evaluated and prepared for the surgery, with a focus on optimal outcomes and patient comfort.


Our AV Fistula Surgery Process


1. Pre-Surgical Assessment: The first step in the AV fistula surgery process is a comprehensive pre-surgical assessment. Our team conducts a thorough evaluation of your health status, including blood tests, imaging studies, and a review of your medical history. This helps us determine the most suitable location for the fistula and ensure that you are in optimal health for the surgery.

2. Surgical Procedure: The AV fistula surgery is performed under local anesthesia, and it typically takes about two hours. Our skilled surgeons make a small incision in your arm and connect an artery to a vein. This connection allows for increased blood flow into the vein, making it larger and stronger over time. This is crucial for providing a reliable access point for hemodialysis.

3. Post-Surgical Care: After the surgery, you will receive detailed instructions on how to care for your AV fistula. Our team provides guidance on how to monitor the fistula for any signs of complications, such as infection or clotting. We also schedule follow-up appointments to check the progress of the fistula and ensure it is maturing properly.

4. Maturation and Use: An AV fistula typically takes several weeks to mature before it can be used for hemodialysis. During this period, our team will continue to monitor your progress and provide support as needed. Once the fistula is mature, it will be used for dialysis sessions, providing a reliable and efficient access point for your treatments.

4. Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance: Even after the fistula is in use, regular monitoring and maintenance are essential. Our team conducts routine checks to ensure the fistula is functioning correctly and to address any issues promptly. We provide comprehensive support to help you maintain the health and longevity of your AV fistula.
