Multimodality interventions, including both percutaneous and surgical approaches, are paramount in maintaining vascular fistula and graft patency in hemodialysis patients. Mechanical thrombectomy with Angiojet AVX or Solent Proxi of AVFs and AVGs achieved acceptable technical and clinical success rates (>90%) in combination with adjuvant percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting. Future prospective studies using intravascular imaging before therapy may be useful when deciding which treatment modalities to use for AVFs and AVGs.
