Abstract
Though rare, dialysis associated steal syndrome (DASS) can cause debilitating symptoms. Surgical revision of the dialysis access is typically required. We describe a percutaneous technique to alleviate steal syndrome utilizing a constrained stent within an arteriovenous graft. A brief review of the incidence, pathophysiology, and standard treatment of DASS is also provided.
