title: Percutaneous subclavian vein catheterization for hemodialysis in small children.
abstract: Angioaccess for hemodialysis in infants can be accomplished by percutaneous insertion of an Uldall catheter if certain modifications are made. We have used this technique in six children for 2 to 9 weeks until either fistulas matured for chronic dialysis, transplantation could be accomplished, or uremia resolved.
