What is AB Graft?
Gynecomastia is a benign enlargement of male breast glandular tissue, caused by an imbalance between the hormones estrogen and testosterone. It’s relatively common and can affect males of all ages — from newborns to older men.
What causes it:
- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring long-term dialysis
- Inability to create a native AV fistula due to Narrow or scarred veins; Previous failed fistulas; Poor vascular anatomy
- Urgent need for dialysis access
Symptoms:
- Thrill or bruit (vibration or sound) at the graft site — indicates blood flow
- Swelling, redness, or warmth — may suggest infection
- Pain or discomfort at the graft area
- Decreased dialysis efficiency — could indicate graft clotting or narrowing
Complete Process
Evaluation & Imaging
We begin with detailed clinical evaluation, imaging (MRI, CT, fistulogram), and lab work to determine the type, size, and cause of the fistula.
Surgical Planning
Based on the location and complexity, we select one of the following:Fistulotomy , Seton placement , Flap repair , Colostomy diversion.
Surgery & Healing
Most fistula repairs are done under regional or general anesthesia. Depending on the case, hospital stay may range from 1–5 days. Wound care and antibiotics are part of recovery.
Post-Op Monitoring & Support
We monitor healing progress, manage pain, and address continence or scarring concerns through regular follow-ups.
