Abstract

There has been a significant increase in the catheter-related complications as the use of central venous catheters increased. One of the most important complications of the port catheter, which is routinely used in cancer patients, is venous thrombosis. Catheter-related thrombosis may be the reason for vena cava superior syndrome and impaired venous drainage. Progression of the thrombus into the right atrium can increase the rate of mortality and morbidity due to potential of pulmonary embolism. There is another debate whether to remove the catheters or not in such patients, in spite of optimal anticoagulant treatment. We aimed to report a 40-year-old patient who was treated for infiltrative ductal carcinoma and diagnosed with vena cava superior syndrome secondary to port catheter-related thrombosis.

Özet

Santral venöz kateterlerin kullanımlarında artma olması ile birlikte buna bağlı komplikasyonlarda da ciddi artış görülmektedir. Günümüzde özellikle kanser hastalarında sıklıkla kullanılan port kateterlerin en önemli komplikasyonlarından birisi şüphesiz venöz trombozlardır. Katetere bağlı trombozlar, nadiren de olsa vena kava superior sendromuna ve venöz dönüş anomalisine de neden olabilirler. Trombozun sağ atriyum içerisine ilerlemesi, sebep olabileceği pulmoner emboli nedeniyle mortalite ve morbidite oranlarını arttırabilir. Uygun antikoagülan tedaviye rağmen bu hastalarda kateterin çıkartılıp çıkartılmaması da ayrı bir tartışma konusudur. Yazımızda, infiltratif duktal karsinom nedeniyle tedavi alan ve port kateter implantasyonu sonrasında vena kava superior sendromu gelişen 40 yaşında bir hastayı sunmayı amaçladık.
