Hands swell more with each dialysis, and even the right side of the face is swollen! Yuan Rung Cardiac Surgery cleared a 3 cm obstructed great vein without an incision.

A 62-year-old dialysis patient experienced severe swelling of his entire right arm and even noticeable puffiness on the right side of his face due to obstructed blood flow in his right arm arteriovenous fistula. He had received treatment multiple times at other regional teaching hospitals but his condition showed no improvement. After transferring to Yuan Rung Hospital, part of the Yuan Rung Healthcare System, for treatment, Dr. Lai Jin-Hu, Director of Cardiovascular Surgery, conducted a precise evaluation and discovered that the patient suffered from a rare and extremely difficult-to-treat complete central venous occlusion. By altering the treatment strategy and employing dual-lumen catheter technology, the blocked blood vessel was successfully cleared. This not only preserved the valuable dialysis access but also significantly improved the patient's long-standing hand and facial swelling within a week, allowing him to resume a stable dialysis life.
