Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Patients undergoing hemodialysis require reliable vascular access, and the maintenance of arteriovenous:AV access is essential for the continuation of hemodialysis therapy. When AV access stenosis occurs, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty:PTA is the first-line option. Although the clinical success rate of PTA is high, the patency of PTA is relatively low.
Recently, drug coated balloons:DCBs have become available for vascular access stenosis, particularly for patients with early restenosis. Nevertheless, restenosis still occurs in some cases even after DCB angioplasty. In the cardiovascular field, complete lesion preparation prior to DCB deployment often using cutting or scoring balloons is considered critical for optimal outcomes. Such pre dilatation strategies are recommended, yet in the context of vascular access, current treatment guidelines do not specify balloon selection, and supporting evidence remains limited.
Meanwhile, clinical studies on cutting balloons used for AV access stenosis have demonstrated superior dilatation efficacy compared to conventional balloons. If this randomized trial confirms the utility of cutting balloon pre-dilatation prior to DCB use, it may lead to prolonged patency and enhanced therapeutic efficacy of DCBs in vascular access interventions.
