Purpose: This study evaluated the impact of choosing the right versus left internal jugular vein (IJV) for initial central venous catheter (CVC) placement on hemodialysis catheter-related outcomes in critically ill patients.
Materials And Methods: Medical records from the University of Maryland Medical Center were reviewed for adult critical care patients who received an IJV CVC between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2022, and later required an additional temporary hemodialysis catheter.
Results: The study included 214 patients, with 100 (46.7 %) receiving the primary CVC in the right IJV and 114 (53.3 %) in the left IJV. The right IJV group had higher hemodialysis catheter re-insertion rates (40 % vs. 2.6 % in the left IJV group, P < 0.001) related to using a different site other than the right IJV for the initial hemodialysis catheter (85 % for the right IJV group vs. 1.75 % for the left IJV group). Hemodialysis catheters were exchanged over a guidewire in 23 % of the right IJV group vs. 0.9 % in the left IJV group (P < 0.001). Additionally, 38 % of patients in the right IJV group required three venous access interventions, with 14 % needing four or more, versus only 2.6 % requiring three interventions in the left IJV group.
Conclusions: Initiating CVC placement in the right IJV in critically ill patients is associated with a higher risk of hemodialysis catheter re-catheterization related to the use of veins other than the right IJV for hemodialysis catheter placement and an increased need for venous access interventions compared to placement in the left IJV.

Anomalous pulmonary vein drainage is a rare but clinically relevant variant of the cardiovascular anatomy. We present a case report of a 22-year-old male who was incidentally found to have anomalous pulmonary vein drainage into the innominate vein. The patient had a known history of seizures and was brought to the emergency department following a simple tonic-clonic seizure.

Background: This study aimed to examine the correlation between subcutaneous fat thickness and chemoport-related infection and to determine the risk factors that lead to complications associated with chemoport.
Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed 363 patients with chemoport insertion between May 2018 and May 2022. The patients were classified into three groups, with 121 patients in each group, based on the tertiles of subcutaneous fat thickness measured in the computed tomography (CT) scan.

Objective: To describe the treatment outcomes of patients who underwent Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) for Central Vein Occlusive Disease (CVOD) in end-stage kidney disease and determine the association between patient profile and treatment outcomes.
Methods: A single-institution, retrospective review of patients aged 18 and above with end-stage kidney disease who underwent PTA for CVOD in the University of the Philippines - Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2022, was performed. These patients' demographic and clinical profiles were evaluated using means, frequencies, and percentages.
