Endovascular therapy has become the first-line treatment for failing hemodialysis arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). However, open revision remains an important modality for vascular access maintenance and the recommended approach for AVF aneurysms. This case series describes a hybrid approach for aneurysmal access revision. Three patients were referred for second opinion after failure of endovascular therapy to establish a functioning access. The medical history is briefly described to highlight the limitations of endovascular therapy and the technical advantages of the hybrid approach in these clinical scenarios.
