The most common cardiovascular problems in these elderly patients were angina pectoris in 9 and difficulties in fistula creation in 10 patients. Arterial hypertension was present in 7 patients. The first year survival rate was 55.5%. Cardiovascular episodes were the commonest cause of death among the 14 patients who died.
