Abstract

We describe the case of a patient who had been on hemodialysis for 8 years using a native arteriovenous fistula cannulated through the Venous Window Needle Guide™ device (VWING). The overall outcome was excellent and complication-free with intact state of the underlying vessel and a high degree of patient satisfaction. The patient was able to carry out self-cannulation without any difficulty almost from the very beginning. The current unavailability of VWING is a missed opportunity in the field of vascular access.
