Abstract:
As a result of the dynamic developments in oncology over the last few years, multimodal therapeutic options are now available for the treatment of cancer patients in practically all diseases stages. This has led to an increase in the use of all forms of chemotherapy. Low and moderately complex chemotherapy options are being increasingly employed in outpatient and day clinic settings. For this reason, among others, the implantation of central venous port systems has progressed to become an important component in the therapeutic planning for oncological patients.
