Abstract
- Arteriovenous graft in the thigh is used not infrequently for hemodialysis. Outcomes with this lower extremity dialysis access are generally comparable to upper extremity access and superior to long-term catheter use. However, it could have significant implications in a patient getting a kidney transplant. Here we describe a case of thigh arteriovenous graft causing kidney allograft dysfunction in a new transplant recipient, and this resolved with graft ligation.
