#VAS2025
Bostjan Leskovar (SLO) and his team compared side to side anastomosis with end-to-side AVF creation:
🚨Less vein manipulation
🚨Less juxta-anastomotic stenosis
🚨Better primary and primary assisted patency
🚨Less radial art thrombosis
⌚Comparable operating time
Dr Claudio Ronco reminded us, younger generations, that there is still a lot to be done for vascular access. The only way forward is to keep on researching and keep our curiosity alive

Updates on endoAVFs, now at #VAS2025! What is new?:
-Ellipsis (thermal-based): 1 cannulation site. US needed.
-WavelinQ (radiofrequency): allows for multiple cannulation sites. Fluoroscopy needed.
-Other options in development: ePATH (BMS as anastomosis) and Velocity.
How cost-effective are really endoAVFs? José Ibeas explains more data and experience are needed since 5-year model outcomes shows surgical AVFs are still the better option.

Last day at #VAS2025 and it starts with no other than Dr Claudio Ronco. Really interesting talk about the history of hemodialysis and vascular access
It's one of the best moments of the #VAS2025 congress: it's clinical case time! Discussion of BMS on dialysis patients, endoAVF fistula's reinterventions and its complications:
An important message from dr. Lundström 📢 don't forget the AVF after transplantation 📢. With suggestions when to Ligate⬇️ #VAS2025
The VAS awards have been published! We're happy to announced that one of them has been given to one of our young committee members. We're really excited for what the future is holding for the rest of the VA community #VAS2025
#VAS2025
It's time to put the patients on our focus, and what better way to do it than including them in one of the congress sessions?
Nurse, nephrologist, surgeon, radiologist and the patients, all in one spot, to solve our patient's questions.
John Lucas III shows us the different approaches to correction of the flow of fistulas according to its severity and presence of symptoms, specifically, distal ischemia
