Thirty years survivor on hemodialysis : a case report

الملخص EN

Hemodialysis is a widely performed and safe procedure; therefore, the numbers of long-term survivors on hemodialysis therapy have been increasing.

We present a woman who had been on uninterrupted hemodialysis for 30 years and did well for much of her time on hemodialysis, despite a long-standing uneven course.

The literature of extremely long-lived patients on uninterrupted hemodialysis is reviewed and the clinical characteristics and complications encountered in these patients are discussed.
