متن کاملExperience of 70-cm-long femoral tunnelled twin Tesio catheters for chronic haemodialysis.
BACKGROUND Tunnelled femoral catheters with their tip in the lower inferior vena cava (IVC) are proposed only in few cases, but they often provide less than optimal blood flows and frequently have complications. The aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the use of 70-cm-long tunnelled cuffed femoral twin Tesio catheters with their tip in the upper IVC for haemodialysis. M...
