AI Article Synopsis
- * It details approaches for accessing the subclavian vein, axillary vein, and peripheral veins such as the basilic, brachial, and cephalic veins, as well as arterial line placement in various locations.
- * The paper also highlights the use of ultrasound for inserting central catheters (PICC Lines) and discusses the assessment of complications like pneumothorax and hemopericardium.
Article Abstract
Based on our clinical experience and a review of the current literature, this paper describes a large variety of ultrasound-guided vascular puncture techniques used in adults and children far beyond the well described puncture of the internal jugular vein. This includes low or posterior approaches of the internal jugular vein, puncture of the subclavian vein and its variant in children, infraclavicular access to the axillary vein and also more peripheral punctures of the basilic, brachial and cephalic veins. Arterial line placement in the radial, humeral, axillary or femoral are also described as well as the aid of ultrasonography for peripheral insertion of central catheters (PICC Lines). Additional information on ultrasonographic assessment of potentially related complications, like pneumothorax or hemopericardium, will complete this review.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic potential of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAE), distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE), and pure-tone audiometry (PTA) in patients with pulsatile tinnitus (PT) caused by sigmoid sinus wall anomalies (SSWA).
Methods: This study included 20 PT patients and 20 matched healthy controls. SOAE, DPOAE, and PTA were assessed before and after compression of the internal jugular vein.

When squamous cell carcinoma necessitates mandibular resection, the resultant defect can be complex. An osteocutaneous fibula free flap is an effective reconstruction option, typically supplied by the peroneal artery for both the fibula and skin flap. In this case report, an anatomical variation was found: the skin paddle was supplied by soleus musculocutaneous perforators of the posterior tibial artery, whereas the fibula was supplied by the peroneal artery.

Lemierre's syndrome (LS) is a rare condition characterized by septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein (IJV). Typically, the primary infection originates in the oropharynx, progressing to the lateral pharyngeal space, IJV, and potentially leading to bacteremia. Through septic embolization, these patients can develop severe complications, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis.

Background: The cannulation of the internal jugular vein (IJV) is a frequent procedure in critically ill patients. According to the guidelines, real-time ultrasound navigation is recommended. Traditional techniques pose several disadvantages, such as suboptimal needle visualization.
