Ultrasound-guided central line insertion in adults became the standard of care; however, its role in children is not clear. Our objective was to evaluate the ultrasound-guided Port-A-Cath or totally implanted long-term venous access device insertion in pediatric patients compared to the traditional...
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), has a treatment duration of two and half years which is facilitated by the insertion of a port-a-cath. To access a port, the area is cleaned in a sterile fashion and a needle is inserted through the skin, into the port. Ports must be flushed with ...

We report on 91 patients with who underwent the insertion of 89 venous and 4 hepatic arterial, implanted vascular ports (Port-a-caths) for periods of up to 33 months (total 1,525 patient-months). There were 1 fatal, 9 serious and 8 minor complications in 18 patients which are described...
Background: Port-a-cath is an implantable system, which can be inserted into the arterial or venous blood vessel. It enables more comfortable administration of drugs. Intraarterial chemotherapy has the greatest effect in the region downstream of the place of insertion, without major systemic side ...
This study was undertaken to demonstrate the effectiveness of ultrasound (US)-guided placement of porta-cath (PC) through the right internal jugular vein (
breast cancer. The left internal jugular vein was used when it was impossible to puncture the right internal jugular vein or in patients with right breast cancer. After insertion, the position of the distal tip of the catheter was confirmed using the C-arm. A pocket for port insertion was ...
