Abstract :The purpose of this study was to retrospectively review the outcome and complications of totally implantable venous-access ports insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TIVAPs); inserted via low internal jugular vein insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(IJV); approach under ultrasound guidance versus subclavian vein insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SCV); approach.304 cancer patients who could be followed up to the time of catheter removal or to the end of the study period were enrolled in the study. 200patients had the placement of TIVAPs via IJV and 104 patients via SCV. Statistical analysis showed that there were no differences with regard to the patient characteristics and to the site of primary malignancy in two groups, while the large majority of the TIVAPs had been inserted in the right side. The average port dwelling time was higher in the IJV group compared to the SCV group, the difference was statistically significant insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.001);. Complications were more frequent in the SCV than in the IJV approach insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(12 patients vs. 3 patients);. Our analysis revealed that TIVAP is a safe and effective route for long-term administration of chemotherapy, and the placement of TIVAPs via the right IJV is associated with a low long-term complication rate.
