[The pericardium of the newborn infant. Anatomic and radio-anatomic study with the view toward better positioning central catheters in the superior vena cava].
The aim of this study was to define Anatomics relationships of pericardium and veine cavae superius in newborn. In clinical experience the possibility of acute "hydropericardium" accidents in newborn with central venous parenteral nutrition, shows that the catheter must be positioned above the pericardium reflexion line. In this study, this line appears clearly above T2 Pevel.
