The basilic vein exposed by a long medial incision, starting from the upper region of the cubital fossa and extending 10-15 cm proximally along the arm under local anesthesia or axillary block in elderly and general anesthesia in children.
After finishing the AV fistula, the deep part of the basilic vein was superficialized to the subcutaneous tissue by closing the superficial fascia of the arm with 2.0 Vicryl under the vein.
The basilic vein is a good access since it has a long course, running from the wrist at the ulnar site and ascending upward to anastomose with median and cephalic veins to become the axillary vein (9).

 Basilic Vein   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The basilic vein passes along the back of the forearm on the ulnar side for a distance and then curves to the surface below the elbow.
It continues to move up the medial side until it reaches the middle of the upper arm.
There, it enters deep into the tissues and joins the "brachial vein." As the basilic and brachial veins merge, they form the "axillary vein."

 EVS: 2005 Annual Meeting - Outcomes of Autologous Upper Arm
Basilic vein transposition is performed in one stage using conventional techniques; if no usable basilic vein is found the brachial vein is explored for use.
The records of all patients undergoing autogenous basilic and brachial upper arm transpositions for hemodialysis access between January 2001 and December 2004 were retrospectively evaluated.
While these outcomes were obtained within the context of an aggressive all-autologous policy, the findings that vein size, number and presence of previous fistulas and grafts, and presence of ipsilateral catheters had no influence on success suggest that these rates are intrinsic to the procedure itself.
