Arteriovenous Graft

A forearm loop arteriovenous graft for haemodialysis. Arteriovenous fistulas created with native vessels is the first-choice of access for haemodialysis. For patients who do not have sizeable veins for arteriovenous fistula creation, arteriovenous grafts using prosthetic materials can be an alternative choice. Arteriovenous grafts are less preferable as they carry a higher risk of infection and failure.
