Objective To evaluate the efficacy of port catheter system(PCS)placement in pulmonary artery via percutaneous subclavicle vein treatment for multiple metastatic tumor in the two lungs and discuss the PCS technique.Methods Fifteen multiple metastatic tumor patients(13 hepatocellular carcinomas,one mandible grand adenocarcinoma,one oral bottom squamous carcinoma)were carried out with pulmonary artery PCS placement by way of percutaneous subclavicle vein.FPA/FPM/GP chemotherapy scheme were introduced every 4～6 weeks.Results The success rate of PCS placement technique was 93.3%(14/15).One case failed.Percutaneous subclavicle veins were performed 14 cases in right side and 1 in left one.Following up 2～43 months,2～7 chemotherapy cycles(mean 5 cycles)were accomplished,and the clinical CR and PR were achieved in 1 and 3 cases respectively with clinical efficacy rate 28.6%(4/14).Major side reaction was late wound healing in 1 case.Conclusion PCS placement in pulmonary artery treatment for multiple metastatic tumor in the two lungs is effective,and mastering operation technique is the key for increasing operation suc- cess rate.

Objective To analyze the validity of Caprini venous thrombosis risk assessment model (Caprini RAM) in the tunneled cuffed dialysis catheters (TCCs) dysfunction patients with central venous thrombosis (CVT).Methods A total of 187 maintenance hemodialysis patients with TCCs dysfunction admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2013 to September 2016 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the chest computed tomography venography results,patients were divided into CVT group and non CVT group.Their general clinical data (age,gender,primary diseases,history of dialysis access,etc.),blood biochemical data (hemoglobin,serum albumin,blood lipid,etc.) and 40 risk factors of Caprini RAM were collected.Caprini RAM scores were computed for risk stratification of thrombosis.Two groups were compared to analyze the value of Caprini RAM in these patients by statistics.Results One hundred and twenty CVT patients and sixty-seven non CVT patients were enrolled.In CVT group the duration of dialysis,hemoglobin and hematocrit were higher than those in non CVT group (all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender,age,primary diseases,duration of catheter dependence,catheter tip position,usage of urokinase (all P ＞ 0.05).The average score of Caprini RAM in CVT group and non CVT group did not show statistical difference (6.23+ 1.81 vs 6.19+ 1.95,P=0.913).All patients were stratified into higher risk level and highest risk level according to Caprini RAM.Higher risk level patients accounted for 18.18％ and highest risk level patients accounted for 81.82％.As patients with inequable Caprini RAM scores,their incidence of CVT did not differ statistically (x2=0.105,P=0.746).CVT incidence rate of higher risk level patients was 61.76％,and of highest risk level patients was 64.70％.Conclusions Caprini RAM verifies that maintenance hemodialysis patients with TCCs dysfunction have high risk of venous thrombosis,but this model fails to distinguish patients between CVT group and non CVT group.Its clinical diagnosis is relatively limited and needs to be further explored.
