Stanford type B aortic dissection involving the left subclavian artery (LSA) poses significant clinical challenges. The Castor single-branch stent graft and in situ fenestration are commonly used techniques, but the better endovascular treatment remains debated. This study evaluates the clinical effects of the Castor single-branched stent graft versus in situ fenestration in treating Stanford type B aortic dissection involving the LSA.

Background: Stent graft-induced new entry (SINE) after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a serious adverse event which leads to stent graft migration and rupture. SINE is known to be more frequent in cases of chronic dissection and oversizing. However, few studies have evaluated the influence of hemodynamic stress on SINE in patients with chronic dissection.

Central venous catheter (CVC) tip migration is a well reported delayed complication of these vascular access devices with left-sided internal jugular or subclavian vein placement being the primary risk factor for this complication. We report a case of left internal jugular CVC migration and its diagnosis made by the heretofore unreported use of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography in this context. Moreover, we describe risk factors for CVC migration along with its diagnosis and management.

Article Synopsis
  • * A case study is highlighted involving a 56-year-old woman with breast cancer whose chemoport catheter migrated into her heart, leading to dysfunction during chemotherapy, which was detected through chest X-ray.
  • * The migration was successfully managed using a snare technique, emphasizing the importance of fast detection and collaboration among healthcare professionals when complications arise.

Introduction And Importance: The use of a Totally Implantable Venous Access Port (TIVAP) has been a popular access option in chemotherapy for cancer patients, but complications, both long-term and short-term, may arise in the fixation process. This paper discusses the importance of detection and management of complications that arise as a result of TIVAP insertion.

Case Presentation: A 51-year-old female patient came to the hospital to undergo a TIVAP implantation for her chemotherapy through the right subclavian vein; however, a false route occurred to the right internal jugular vein instead of the right atrium.
