The LifeSite Hemodialysis System (Vasca, Inc., Tewksbury, MA, USA)is totally subcutaneous, incorporating two silicone catheters positioned in the central venous system and connected to a stainless steel-titanium valve implanted in a subcutaneous pocket. A randomized trial and nonrandomized clinical experience have demonstrated lower rates of infection and longer device survival when 70% isopropyl alcohol is used as the antimicrobial solution with the LifeSite. Internal jugular vein placement with positioning of the valve on the anterior chest wall further improves results.

Aim To report initial experience regarding the use of novel self-sealing electrospun nanofabric graft. Material and methods A total of 21 patients aged between 22 and 64 (male:female ratio = 11:10) underwent AVflo vascular access graft implantation to forearm. Information for patency at 6 and 12 months after the operation was obtained. Cannulation for hemodialysis was allowed 8 h after the operation, as needed. Results Cannulation was performed before 12th hour of implantation in two patients, between 12th and 24th postoperative hours in 10 patients and between 12th and 24th postoperative hours in the remaining nine patients. Primary patency was 17/21 (80.9%) at 6th month and 15/21 (71.4%) at 12th month. Secondary patency was 19/21 (90.4%) at sixth month and 17/21 (80.9%) at 12th month. Conclusion AVflo self-sealing graft allows for early cannulation after implantation and thus may potentially eliminate the need for central venous catheters in selected patients.
