A new method for the take-down of Cimino-Brescia fistulas is described. Instead of ligating the venous runoff vessels individually, the fistula is opened over the area of the arteriovenous anastomosis and the connection between vein and artery is closed with a running Prolene suture. The advantages of this new method are described.
