title: [Arteriovenous fistula in the tabatière region--primary shunt in chronic hemodialysis].
abstract: The number of patients with end-stage renal disease treated by chronic hemodialysis is permanently increased. An assumption of a long-term and successful treatment is the durable functioning vascular access. The method of choice worldwide is the typical Cimino fistula on the distal forearm, but a more peripheral arterio-venous fistula is possible. A fistula in the Tabatière region has proved to be excellent in our experience with 51 patients operated between January 1985 and March 1987. The surgical technique, results, and advantages of this vascular access operation are described.
