Medtronic received a literature article titled 'a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial for comparing drug-coated and conventional balloon angioplasty in venous anastomotic stenosis of hemodialysis arteriovenous grafts'.To evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon angioplasty compared to conventional balloon angioplasty in the treatment of dysfunctional arteriovenous grafts.Angioplasty was performed using a 7 mm conventional pta balloon (fortrex pta balloon catheter, medtronic, minneapolis, mn, usa) with an inflation time of 1 min.The balloon length was 4 cm.If the balloon waist was not effaced, we performed a post-balloon angioplasty using a high-pressure balloon (non-medtronic).A special balloon (cutting balloon, scoring balloon) was not used, and patients with [(b)(4) residual stenosis, dissection, or rupture requiring additional treatment after pta were excluded.The pre-dilation pta balloon must be shorter than the dcb length to avoid geographical miss.Patients with successful pre-dilation pta were randomized to undergo either dcba or cba.According to the randomization, secondary pta was performed for 3 min at 7 atm in the same place.Repeat fistulography was performed after the second pta to confirm the final fistulography result.The cba group used the same pre-dilation pta balloon, while the dcba group used a balloon with a length of 6 cm and diameter of 7 mm (in.Pact admiral paclitaxel-coated pta balloon catheter, medtronic).No medications were prescribed after the procedure.Unsuccessful pre-dilation resulting in rupture requiring treatment occurred in 2 case.Residual stenosis (b)(4) after pre-dilation occurred in 2 cases.There were no procedure related complications.The tlpp (target lesion primary patency ) at 3 and 6 months (dcba, (b)(4) and (b)(4); cba, (b)(4) and (b)(4)).The tlpp at 12 months(dcba, (b)(4); cba, (b)(4)) and acpp (access circuit primary patency) at 6 and 12 months (dcba, (b)(4) of the patients with dcba required retreatment within 6 months.Thrombosis post proceure was reported in dcb n=55 and cba n= 57.Other evetns reported during follow up included surgery (infection), surgery (steal) and pseudoaneurysm.Two deaths occurred during the 12-month follow-up (dcba, 1; cba, 1), both were related to heart disease.
