Dialysis access procedures and complications are important causes of morbidity and hospitalization for chronic hemodialysis patients. The number of complicated subjects on dialysis is increasing, and creating a successful native arteriovenous fistula for these patients is a challenge. The classic Brescia-Cimino fistula may not be the best first choice for a native vascular access. We describe the surgical technique of middle-arm fistula (MAF) for hemodialysis. A total of 112 surgical procedures were performed on 106 patients with primary unassisted 24- and 48-month patency rates of 93% and 83%, respectively, and a very low incidence of complications. Our approach was found to be a useful method in patients with comorbid factors.
