ABSTRACT: Background
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a prevalent chronic complication in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Parathyroidectomy (PTX) is crucial for reducing mortality and improving the prognosis in the treatment of refractory hyperparathyroidism. However, it is often associated with a number of postoperative complications such as postoperative hypotension, hyperkalemia, and hungry bone syndrome. A previous study demonstrated that low blood pressure influences the patency of autogenous arteriovenous fistulas (AVF). Few studies have examined AVF dysfunction following PTX. This study aimed to identify and describe the risk variables associated with AVF dysfunction after PTX.Methods
Cases of AVF dysfunction after PTX between 2015 and 2021 were studied. Four controls
