Abstract | A well-functioning vascular access is the cornerstone for an optimal hemodialysis treatment and an issue of major importance for the outcome of patients on chronic hemodialysis. Over the last few years reports supporting the aspect that mechanisms involved in vascular access malfunction are genetically controlled have been published. Triggered by two cases reported herein, we present a comprehensive review of the literature on an evolving field of particular significance to patients on hemodialysis. |
