Sažetak

Surgical fistulas have been used to create dialysis access for over 50 years in chronic
kidney disease patients. However, due to problems like slow maturation and a high risk of thrombosis
or stenosis, results remain sub-optimal with high intervention and surgery rates to maintain
patency.
Endovascular methods for fistula creation were invented recently to resolve these issues, allowing
haemodialysis patients to have an alternative non-surgical option, with two different devices currently
available. Endovascular creation of A-V fistulas is involved with minimal vessel trauma, which could
be the reason for encouraging initial results demonstrating high technical success rates, low intervention
rates, and good patient satisfaction. This article describes the technical aspects of these procedures,
patient selection as well as trial results, and the status of endovascular arteriovenous fistula
creation.
