Description

Recently, a growing number of patients with cancer have received hemodialysis because of an improvement of their mortality due to advances in anticancer therapy. On the other hand, it has been reported that some patients with cancer have coagulation disorders. A 72-year-old male who received chemotherapy for intrahepatic bile duct cancer developed appetite loss and general malaise. He showed acute on chronic renal failure and bradycardia due to hyperkalemia. A flexible double-lumen (FDL) catheter was inserted into the right jugular vein and hemodialysis was initiated. At 8 days in hospital, computed tomography showed a high-density area in the right posterior brain. Magnetic resonance venography revealed right transverse sinus thrombosis. The FDL catheter was removed and intravenous heparin infusion was started immediately. Although right jugular vein puncture is recommended for cannulation of an FDL catheter, we need to keep in mind cerebral vascular thrombosis as a complication of right jugular vein catheterization, especially in cases with malignant disease.
