OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of the brachiocephalic vein as an alternative access site for the insertion of tunneled hemodialysis catheters in patients with occluded jugular veins. CONCLUSION: Placement of brachiocephalic catheters for central venous access is safe and provides an alternative access in patients with internal and external jugular vein occlusion. |
