Kami melaporkan seorang wanita 60 tahun dengan riwayat penyakit saat ini adalah gagal ginjal kronik dengan hemodialisa reguler dua kali seminggu. TDC terpasang di vena jugularis interna kanan. TDC mengalami disfungsi sejak 1 minggu lalu, dicurigai akibat dari trombosis yang terbentuk di dalam lumen kateter hemodialisa. TDC kemudian digunting sebagian pada insersi vena jugular dan wire dimasukkan ke dalam kateter hemodialisa tersebut. Dari pencitraan X-ray didapatkan migrasi bagian kateter hemodialisa berada di dalam ruang jantung dengan wire di dalam lumen kateter hemodialisa. Fluoroskopi menunjukkan gambaran sebagian kateter hemodialisa berada di ruang jantung dengan wire terpasang di dalam potongan lumen kateter hemodialisa. Ekstraksi sebagian kateter hemodialisa dilakukan menggunakan metode loop snare dengan akses guiding wire yang dimasukkan melalui vena femoralis kiri. Fragmen kateter kemudian berhasil dikeluarkan. Pengambilan fragmen melalui endovaskular tergolong teknik yang sederhana. Loop snare yang sederhana sudah cukup efektif dan murah dibanding komersial snare, sehingga pembedahan terbuka ataupun laparaskopik dapat dihindari.

Haddad, Sheri Van Cleef and Anil K. Agarwal* Internal Medicine, Interventional Nephrology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA Abstract: Central venous catheters (CVC) continue to remain a common modality of vascular access in end stage kidney disease patients maintained on hemodialysis. The increased morbidity and mortality associated with CVC, when compared to arteriovenous fistulas and grafts, is a serious health problem and a big challenge to the nephrology community. In this article we present the pros and cons of CVC, in addition to the different complications and excessive economical costs related to their use.

There have been few systematic attempts to reduce this burden and clinical practice remains highly variable.

We report on analysis of data of patients who suffered from TMA. Methods: This is a web-based registry. A link is available from the WAA homepage (www.worldapheresis.org). So far data from 2,495 patients (16067 procedures) have been included. A median of 6 treatments have been performed (range 1-140). Mean age 51 y (range 1-94 years; 45% women). This registry contains data of 386 procedures in 61 patients with TMA. Results: The mean value of their age was 46 years (range 11-85 years), of these 57% were women. In 72% of them treatment was due to acute indication, while long- term indication was given in 28%. Blood access: peripheral vessels (57%), central dialysis catheter through jugular (13%) or subclavian veins (13%), femoral vein (13%) and other (4%). Plasma exchange was performed by centrifugation in 95% and filtration in 5%. Citrate was used for anticoagulation in 97% of the procedures. Fresh frozen plasma was mainly used as replacement fluid (63%), cryosupernatant plasma (11.5%) and albumin (12%), liquid stored plasma (1.5%).
