Radial artery deviation and reimplantation inhibits venous juxta-anastomotic stenosis and increases primary patency of radial-cephalic fistulas for hemodialysis

The RADAR technique is associated with less juxta-anastomotic stenosis, increased maturation and patency, and fewer secondary interventions. These improved outcomes suggest that RADAR may be the preferred surgical technique to perform radial-cephalic arteriovenous fistula.
