title: [Catheterisation of the internal jugular vein for parenteral nutrition (author's transl)].
abstract: The technique consists of surgical exposure of the vein, its isolation by two threads and the introduction of a soft prethoracic exit. This technique avoids the complications inherent in any blind puncture of a large vessel. By virtue of the type of catheter (soft silicone) and the long subcutaneous course. It may be left in place for more than a month.
