Review of the literature

Drug-coated balloons for AV fistula: overview of the literature

Endovascular treatment of the dysfunctional dialysis access resembles the “Myth of Sisyphus”. The cycle of stenosis-treatment-restenosis keeps going on and on. DCB technology promises to slow down the process of restenosis and thus, extend the period between interventions.
