Introduction: Ultrasound (US)-guided axillary vein puncture is a safe and effective approach for cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation, and it is highly recommended by the current consensus document. However, only reports on small populations are available in the current literature regarding the comparison of this technique with other traditional approaches (subclavian vein blind puncture and cephalic vein surgical cutdown).
Purpose: We aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of US- guided axillary vein puncture using a microintroducer kit for CIED implantation as compared to the aforementioned traditional approaches.

Background/aim: To investigate the possible morbidities associated with the implantation of a totally implantable venous access device (TIVAD) in breast cancer (BC) patients.
Materials And Methods: Clinical data and developed complications in 546 BC patients with TIVAD between 2017 and 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Among these, 524 (96%) patients who underwent TIVAD implantation via the right subclavian vein (SCV) route were examined separately.

Addressing and acknowledging potential complications is informative, as such insight can improve patient outcomes and establish clinical guidelines. We present the case of a 34-year-old male with dermatomyositis who sustained a subclavian artery injury in the intensive care unit following internal jugular vein catheterization.
