[The external left jugular vein as an access for placement of long-term permanent central venous catheters in children].
Minerva Pediatrica 1989 April
We consider the approach through the left external jugular vein v/s right external jugular vein (Heinbach-Ivey technique) for the placement of central venous catheters (Broviac Hickman type and others) in pediatric patients. Between January '84 and February '87, 65 central venous catheters were inserted using the Heinbach Ivey technique. In 24.6% of the cases we failed and had to place the catheter through the right internal jugular vein. Between March '87 and November '88, 72 catheters were inserted through the left external jugular vein, only 5 through the left internal jugular vein, with a failure rate of 6%. Our data show that a more favourable anatomy makes easier and quicker the correct placement of a central venous catheter through a left external jugular vein approach.
