  1. Stent Graft vs. Balloon Angioplasty for Failing Dialysis-Access Grafts Primary outcome better with stent graft vs. angioplasty Procedural success for stent graft vs. angioplasty: 94% vs. 73%, p < 0.001 Infection for stent graft vs. angioplasty: 6% vs. 2%, p = 0.28; thrombotic occlusion: 33% vs. 21%, p = 0.1; pseudoaneurysm: 5% vs. 2%, p = 0.45 (p = 1.0) (p < 0.001) Trial design: Patients with prosthetic hemodialysis graft stenosis randomized to balloon angioplasty or stenting with PTFE stent graft. Patient follow-up: mean 6 months. Results 10 100 6.0 5.0 51.0 % % 5 50 Conclusions 23.0 • PTFE stent graft superior to balloon angioplasty alone for the treatment of prosthetic hemodialysis graft failure due to stenosis • Encouraging results since balloon angioplasty alone has high failure rates, and other treatments have been unsuccessful 0 0 Primary endpoint All-cause mortality Balloon angioplasty (n = 93) PTFE stent graft (n = 97) Haskal ZJ, et al.
