Dialysis Access Surgery

Yes. Failed or poorly maturing fistulas are a common reason patients seek specialist vascular care abroad. Treatment options include surgical revision (repositioning the anastomosis), balloon-assisted maturation (angioplasty to dilate the outflow vein), accessory vein ligation, or creation of a new fistula at a different site. An ultrasound venous mapping is performed first to identify the anatomy and determine the best salvage approach. India and Turkey have high-volume access surgery centers experienced in complex revisions, often achieving usable fistulas in cases considered non-viable elsewhere.
