Long loop technique with bifemoral access as salvage technique for repositioning of dislodged port catheters.

Background: Repositioning of dislocated port systems' catheters is usually performed with a pigtail catheter and/or a goose snare. In case of an inaccessible port catheter tip due to thrombosis, this classic approach may be not successful. For these cases, we describe a long loop bailout technique with bifemoral access.
