Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate pulse-spray pharmacomechanical thrombolysis with the use of tissue plasminogen activator in the recanalization of thrombosed hemodialysis access grafts. Pulse-spray pharmacomechanical thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator is an effective method for percutaneous recanalization of thrombosed hemodialysis access grafts with results similar to other percutaneous techniques.
