Abstract Purpose Modern oncological treatment algorithms require a central venous device in form of a totally implantable venous access port (TIVAP). While most commonly used techniques are surgical cutdown of the cephalic vein or percutaneous puncture of the subclavian vein, there are a relevant number of patients in which an additional strategy is needed. The aim of the current study is to present a surgical technique for TIVAP implantation via an open Seldinger approach of the internal jugular vein and to characterize risk factors, associated with primary failure as well as short- (< 30 days) and long-term (> 30 days) complications. Methods A total of 500 patients were included and followed up for 12 months. Demographic and intraoperative data and short- as well as long-term complications were extracted. Primary endpoint was TIVAP removal due to complication. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze associated risk factors. Results Surgery was primarily successful in all cases, while success was defined as functional (positive aspiration and infusion test) TIVAP which was implanted via open Seldinger approach of the jugular vein at the intended site. TIVAP removal due to complications during the 1st year occurred in 28 cases (5.6%) while a total of 4 (0.8%) intraoperative complications were noted. Rates for short- and long-term complications were 0.8% and 6.6%, respectively. Conclusion While the presented technique requires relatively long procedure times, it is a safe and reliable method for TIVAP implantation. Our results might help to further introduce the presented technique as a secondary approach in modern TIVAP surgery.

Introduction: During chemotherapy of cancer patients, vein inflammation may develop which may lead to pain and difficulty in blood sampling. The use of implanted venous access ports may overcome these problems. With a correct use of needles, venous port membrane may be pierced 2000–2500 times. Aim: The aim of the authors was to analyze their experience with venous access ports and evaluate whether insertion of venous ports occurred in an optimal time. Method: A retrospective study of 63 patients who received venous access ports between 2005 and 2012 was carried out. Complication rate and the time of venous port insertion were analysed. Results: Of the 63 patients, the venous access port was removed in 22 patients because it was no longer required (n = 14) due to the development of complications (n = 8). 24 patients died from the underlying disease and 17 patients are still alive with the venous port in place. Conclusions: In the period studied patients with venous access ports had an improved quality of life. However, the authors conclude that venous access ports were not inserted in an optimal time. Orv.
