  • Title: Abdominal collateral vein as an unconventional vascular access for hemodialysis in patient with central vein occlusion.
    Author: Stróżecki P, Flisiński M, Serafin Z, Wiechecka-Korenkiewicz J, Manitius J.
    Journal: Semin Dial; 2014; 27(4):E48-50. PubMed ID: 24796505.
    Abstract:
    A 65-year-old female patient with chronic kidney disease stage 5 and a history of spleen neoplasm with dissemination within peritoneum is presented. During 5 years of hemodialysis therapy, bilateral occlusion of brachiocephalic and iliac vein developed as a consequence of vein catheterization. An attempt to cannulate inferior vena cava was unsuccessful. A cannulation of dilated collateral abdominal veins with dialysis needles allowed to perform several hemodialysis sessions in the patient.
