Abstract

Ischemic steal syndrome is an infrequent but potentially serious complication that can be difficult to manage while maintaing vascular access surgery. Traditional procedures directed toward increasing the resistance in the fistula have yielded unreliable results. The technique of distal revascularization interval ligation provides a more physiologic approach. We report that 79-year-old man with ischemic hand after angioaccess surgery was successfully treated after DRIL procedure.
