INDICATIONS/COMMENTS: RETAINED CATH. CUFF FOREIGN BODY RETRIEVAL
OPERATIVE PROCEDURE: Following written informed consent, the patient was
prepped and draped in the usual sterile fashion. Under fluoroscopic
guidance, the retained subcutaneous cuff from the patient's previous
right IJ tunneled dialysis catheter was localized. Local anesthesia was
applied. A 1.5 cm incision was made over the cuff which was then isolated
and delivered through the incision using blunt and sharp dissection. The
incision was closed using 2.0 Ethilon following irrigation with sterile
saline. The patient tolerated the procedure well without evidence of
immediate complication
RADIOGRAPHIC REPORT: Initial fluoroscopy allowed localization of the cuff
with followup fluoroscopy confirming complete removal.
CONCLUSION: Subcutaneous cuff removal as described
