Abstract (2. Language): 
This study was conducted to evaluate complications associated with venous access devices used in long-term therapies in the cancer patients. Methods.- One hundred and fifteen consequtive adult cancer patients in whom a subcutaneous port was inserted were evaluated retrospectively between 1996 and 2004. Results- The total accrued sum of device-days for the 115 ports studied was 62,004 days, the average duration after placement was 539 days (range,8-2348 days), and the median duration was 382 days. Complications were identified in 11 of the 115 patients (9.5%). The average duration of ports in the complication group was 467 days (range, 8-1024 days) and median was 407 days. Complications included thrombosis (n:6; 5.1%) in which in one of the patients the catheter end was found in the right femoral vein instead of right atrium causing deep venous thrombosis, port infection (n:1; 0.8%), pneumothorax (n:1; 0.8%), mediastinal extravasation (n:1; 0.8%), port occlusion (n:1; 0.8%) and breaking of the catheter of the port (n:1; 0.8%). Port removal as a result of the complication was performed in 7 patients. Conclusions.- The insertion technique and maintenance of sterility and safety is very important in long term intravenous access devices used in long term therapies in the cancer patients.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Kanser hastalarının uzun süreli tedavilerin-de kullanılan kalıcı santral venöz portların na-sıl takıldığı ve bakımı, daha sonradan çıkabile-cek komplikasyonlar açısından çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmada santral venöz kateterlerle ilgili çıkabilecek sorunlar ve komplikasyonların de-ğerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. 1996-2004 yıl-ları arasında port takılan 115 kanser hastası ret-rospektif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. 115 hasta-da port süresi toplam 62004 gün, ortalama 539 gün, medyan değeri ise 382 gündür (Min: 8, Max: 2348). Yüzonbeş hastanın 11’inde komp-likasyon görüldü (%9,5). Komplikasyon geli-şen hastalarda portun takılı kaldığı süre ortala-ma 467 gün, medyan ise 407 gündür (Max: 1,024, Min: 8 ). Altı hastada tromboz saptandı (%5.1). Bu hastalardan birinde port ucu sağ at-riumda olmalıyken, sağ femoral vende olduğu için derin ven trombozuna sebep olmuştu ve port çıkartıldı (%0,8). Bir hastada pnömotoraks gelişti (%0.8).1 hastada port koptu (%0,8). Bir hastada enfeksiyon saptandı (%0,8). Bir hasta-da port kullanımı sırasında mediastene ekstra-vazasyon gelişti (%0,8). Bir hastada ise port tıkandığı için çıkartıldı (%0,8). Onbir hastadan toplam yedisinde port çıkarıldı. Çok yaygın olarak kanser hastalarına uygulanmaya başla-nan portların deneyimli kişilerce takılması, ve port bakımının düzenli ve iyi bir şekilde ya-pılması gerekmektedir.
