title: Indwelling hemodialysis catheterization by transthoracic way.
abstract: Chronic kidney failure can be described as a chronic and progressive disfunction in metabolic-endocrine function and in adjustment of fluid-electrolyte balance of kidney, as a result of reducing of glomerular filtration value. Besides being a medical issue, chronic kidney failure affects social, economic, and psychological conditions of patients. Indwelling catheters can be placed in the right atrium by right mini thoracotomy in kidney patients who depend on dialysis and all central veins are used. In the patients whose central veins were used, were able to do catheterization by this technique, and this is a procedure that must be retentioned.
