However, it is essential to consider other potential causes as patients with IBD are more susceptible to infections due to their immunocompromised status, which may also be exacerbated by immunosuppressive drugs contributing to myositis. Our case highlights the complexity and challenges in diagnosing and managing myositis in patients with IBD as well as a review of the literature.

Chest-to-back (CTB) tunneling of central venous catheters is a technique described in the Rapid Assessment of Vascular Access Exit Site and Tunneling Options (RAVESTO) for patients at risk for AVCR. In this retrospective review, data was collected for all venous access devices inserted using CTB tunneling in patients requiring medium to long term intravenous access for infusion or hemodialysis, who had a history of self-removing medical devices due to an alteration in mental status, or patients with severely impaired skin integrity.
