Methods and systems for minimally invasive endoscopic surgeries

摘要

The present invention provides systems and methods for minimally invasive endoscopic surgical procedures. In certain embodiments, the surgical procedures include harvesting of a deep basilic or cephalic vein for creation of a brachial-basilic or brachial-cephalic AV fistula, with simultaneous transpositioning, harvesting of a deep basilic or cephalic vein for transposition of an existing brachial-basilic or brachial-cephalic AV fistula, and ligating and excising an aneurysmal radial-cephalic, brachial-cephalic, or brachial-basilic AV fistula from the upper or lower arm.
