We assess if ultrasound surveillance of newly-created arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) can predict nonmaturation sufficiently reliably to justify randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluation ultrasound-directed salvage intervention.
Introduction Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are considered the best and safest modality for providing haemodialysis in patients with end-stage renal disease. Only 20% of UK centres achieve recommended 80% target achieving dialysis prevalent population via permanent access (as opposed to a central venous catheter). This is partly due relatively poor maturation rate newly created fistulas, as many 50% failing mature. The Surveillance Of arterioveNous fistulAe using ultRasound study will examine...
Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF)/ arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) for haemodialysis (HD) are felt to be the best access option HD. Thrombosis of AVF/AVG is a known complication and timely interventions treat thrombosis will improve survival reduce need switching dialysis line creating new access.Percutaneous Mechanical
Inflammatory conditions manifest with a broad spectrum of signs and symptoms. Panniculitis is such condition affecting the subcutaneous fat presents as tender erythematous nodules. It also associated systemic response has been described in literature early 1892 by Pfeifer 1920s Weber Christian. We present an unusual case Caucasian man recurrent febrile illness, inflammatory renal dysfunction requiring acute high dependency care. The authors successfully treated him antiproliferative agent,...

There very few therapeutic options view threat various congenital anomalies comorbidities. Mycofenolate mofetil (MMF) contraindicated during pregnancy due to loss. This a case woman membranous nephritis, who went into partial remission...
Renal Artery Stenosis (RAS) is an important cause of treatment-resistant hypertension. Uncontrolled hypertension with RAS can progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) leading to end-stage disease. Therapeutic revascularisation be helpful in appropriate circumstances where pharmaceutical intervention has failed and significant renovascular contributes resistant We present interesting case a Caucasian male peripheral vasculopathy, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), single functioning ostial...
In this article, the outcome of an interventional nephrology workshop at last year's UK Kidney Week is thoroughly reviewed
Background Arteriovenous fistulas are considered the best option for haemodialysis provision, but as many 30% fail to mature or suffer early failure. Objective To assess feasibility of performing a randomised controlled trial that examines whether, by informing and effective salvage intervention would otherwise fail, Doppler ultrasound surveillance developing arteriovenous improves longer-term fistula patency. Design A prospective multicentre observational cohort study (the ‘SONAR’ study)....
A long-term renal transplant patient who was regularly followed up in the clinic with stable allograft function found to have elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels on a biointact PTH assay. The were resistant suppression increasing doses of 1-alfacalcidol. Detailed history taking and clinical examination revealed reason for apparent resistance therapy.
