Comparison of Cutting Balloon versus High-Pressure Balloon Angioplasty for Resistant Venous Stenoses of Native Hemodialysis Fistulas

The results of this retrospective study suggest that, for resistant stenoses in native hemodialysis fistulas, both high-pressure balloon and cutting balloon angioplasty are effective; however, cutting balloon angioplasty seems to provide more long-standing primary patency at 6-month follow-up.
