ABSTRACT
A totally implanted venous access system was inserted in 19 children with cancer. The devices were utilized for the administration of antineoplastic drugs, parenteral fluids, antibiotics, and blood products. Total duration of implantation was 4,046 days for 23 implanted system (range 7-445 days). Complications included cather infection (0.247/100 catheter days), occlusion (0.692/100 catheter days), and dislodgement of needle (0.643/100 catheter days). There were major complications that necessitated removal of catheters, including systemic infections (0.09/100 catheter days) and complete occlusions (0.09/100 catheter days). The system was thought to be safe and convenient in chemotherapy, and permitted full physical activity.
