abstract：BACKGROUND:Vascular access failure is the main cause of morbidity in hemodialysis. Venous stenosis and subsequent thrombosis, as the result of intimal hyperplasia, is the major cause of vascular access failure. Intimal hyperplasia of the arteriovenous fistula (AVF) closely resembles the main histopathologic feature of ...
