Comparison of catheter patency between surgical inside-out technique and conventional femoral approach for tunneled cuffed catheter placement in patients with thoracic central venous occlusion

Comparison of catheter patency between surgical inside-out technique and conventional femoral approach for tunneled cuffed catheter placement in patients with thoracic central venous occlusion

Objective: Femoral tunneled cuffed catheters (TCCs) can provide long-term hemodialysis access for patients with exhausted upper extremity access sites due to thoracic central venous occlusion. However, the use of femoral vein catheters (FVCs) has reportedly been associated with the risk of infection...
