Placement of an implantable percutaneous permanent triple-lumen catheter.

Abstract:

:A new technique has been described for the placement of an implantable percutaneous triple-lumen catheter. This procedure eliminates the need for a large bore introducer. It also provides a mechanism to change these catheters over a wire if necessary. This cannot be accomplished with the Hickman or Broviac catheters. The three lumens allow multiple, simultaneous intravenous therapies to be administered in the long-term inpatient, as well as the outpatient.

  • Laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy and multiple renal arteries.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) is a new technique. While the short-term recipient renal function is equivalent to that of the traditional open nephrectomy (ODN), long-term function and potential exclusion criteria, such as the presence of multiple renal arteries, are as yet unknown. METHODS:Retrospect...
