title: [Thrombosis of intrathoracic veins. A complication of venous catheterization for temporary hemodialysis].
abstract: Venous thrombosis of large vessels is a common complication, generally asymptomatic, that may occur during central venous catheterization for temporal hemodialysis. We report 2 cases of intrathoracic venous thrombosis which were suspected because of the difficulties occurring during catheterization of a new venous approach during dialysis. Both cases were diagnosed by angiography.
