Use of the distal radial artery remnant for autogenous radial-cephalic wrist fistula after radial artery harvest for coronary artery bypass grafting

Harvesting of the radial artery is a common technique used to provide conduit for coronary artery bypass graft surgery. We report the case of a patient with exhausted left upper extremity access options, history of left upper extremity dialysis access-associated steal syndrome, and prior right radia...
