ABSTRACT
In 9 patients with arterio-venous side-to-end anastomosis on the forearm as vascular access for chronic hemodialysis an uniform symptom complex was observed: retrograde flow of the ectatic vein into the periphery, swelling and pain in this area, partly with trophic skin disorders on the hand. After occlusion of the arterio-venous anastomosis these symptoms could reversed completely with exception of venous dilation.
