Endovascular treatment of thrombosed hemodialysis access is a standard option for restoring flow. Standard treatments, including pharmacomechanical thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, or a combination of therapies, have been commonly used. Mechanical thrombectomy is widely accepted for the treatment of thrombosed arteriovenous fistulas or grafts because the devices have been proven effective and easy to use. Hence, we present a case series of thrombosed hemodialysis grafts successfully salvaged with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy utilizing a rotational thrombectomy system.
