Article Synopsis
- - This study aimed to identify the best type of central venous catheter (CVC) for pediatric patients with Hodgkin lymphoma by examining complications associated with different types during a retrospective analysis from 2015 to 2021.
- - Out of 98 patients, common complications included local infections/irritations, malfunctions, and central venous thrombosis (CVT), with single lumen peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) showing a significantly higher risk of complications compared to totally implantable venous access ports (TIVAPs).
- - The study recommends using TIVAPs over PICCs for pediatric HL patients, particularly if they have risk factors for CVT, and suggests further research on the use
