[Thrombosis and thrombophlebitis after catheterization of the subclavian vein].
The authors analysed 685 catheterizations of the subclavian vein. Thrombophlebitic complications were diagnosed in 13 patients--phlebothrombosis in 9 of them and thrombophlebitis in 4. The complications developed mostly in cases with a severe general disease, in ++pyo-septic conditions. In 19 patients the catheter was displaced into the internal jugular vein during phlebography. Catheterization had to be repeated in 73 patients, thrombophlebitic complications occurred in 4 of them. A conclusion is drawn on the expediency of the principle of unilateral manipulations in catheterization repeated many times.
