DESCRIPTION

With the advent of percutaneous fistula creation, endovascular treatments for hemodialysis access are now fully comprehensive, with patients capable of receiving lifelong treatment for dialysis without a single scar on their arms, something that would be unimaginable 10 years ago. This book is the first of its kind, attempting to include in one single work all the necessary elements for beginners but also the most experienced endovascular specialists that deal with this very fragile group of patients.
