Three near fatal or fatal complications during implantation of tunnelled hemodialysis catheters : Learning from experts
Anaesthesist. 2021 Jul 22. doi: 10.1007/s00101-021-01013-7.

In the literature complications after implantation are well documented but fatal or near-fatal events during implantation are seldom reported. In this article 3 such cases from a single tertiary center over a period of more than 10 years are presented and discussed. The (near) fatal complications occurred despite experienced surgeons and the use of ...
