Abstract
- Peripheral neuropathy is very common in patients with chronic renal failure. The pain arising from hemodialysis can be caused by vascular problems (such as vascular stenosis and steal syndrome) and neuropathy. Hemodialysis patients who need to be dialyzed three times a week should not be told to endure worsening pain every time they are dialyzed. We report that the pain arising from hemodialysis in the lower arm was a concern due to the nerve entrapment in the axillary area, and it was successfully controlled with ultrasound-guided nerve hydrodissection.
