Arteriovenous graft placement is a procedure where a synthetic or biological graft is used to connect an artery and a vein, creating an access point for dialysis. This method is used when an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) cannot be created due to vascular conditions or other factors.

The graft serves as an alternative access site for dialysis, allowing patients to receive hemodialysis treatments. It is typically used when a fistula is not feasible or when quicker access is needed.

Arteriovenous graft placement provides a reliable option for dialysis access, improving the quality of life for patients with kidney failure.
