Özet
The replacement of tunneled hemodialysis catheters (CVCs) is a common procedure. In some cases, the CVC cannot be removed from the central vein because of tight adhesions to the surrounding fibrin sheath. A tight fibrin sheath leads to firm adherence between the catheter and the central veins or right atrial wall. Such stuck catheters cannot be removed from the central vein using standard methods. We present here a case demonstrating the successful removal of such a stuck CVC using the reverse Seldinger method.
