USG guided Transpectoral Axillary Vein Cannulation: A feasible option in subclavian artery injury

Dr Saurabh Sanjay Shaha

Abstract :

The insertion of a central jugular or subclavian venous catheter in patients with injury or distorted anatomy can be challenging. Here, we present a case report of a central venous catheter inserted transpectorally using real time ultrasound guidance into the axillary vein in a case of subclavian artery injury with postburn contractures in the neck.
