abstract: Reverse vascularization of the cephalic vein using the medial cubital vein was performed in 16 patients. No complications were found in a follow-up period that ranged from 2 to 47 months. In selected anatomic cases, this reverse fistula is preferable to the direct brachiocephalic fistula.
