Outcome and Risk Factors of Restenosis Post Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty at Juxta-Anastomotic of Wrist Autogenous Radial-Cephalic Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

For the first PTA at juxta-anastomotic of wrist RC-AVFs without thrombosis and complete occlusion, the use of a balloon with a maximum diameter of ≤5 mm is a risk factor to the occurrence of restenosis within 12 months post PTA. The result may help in tailoring surveillance programs in patients with RC-AVF stenosis.
