Revision using distal inflow
Appearance
Revision Using Distal Inflow (RUDI)[1] is a surgical treatment for Dialysis-associated Steal Syndrome.
History
RUDI was first proposed by David J. Minion and colleagues in 2005.
Procedure
The fistula is ligated at a location slightly proximal to the anastomosis. A bypass to the venous outflow is then created from a distal arterial source.
