Interventional
Catheters
Top
Left
(L
to

Neff
catheter
and
pigtail
catheter.
Both
are
used
for
invasive
diagnosis
with
injection
of
contrast
agents
through
large
arteries,
so
they
have
a
multiperforated
distal
tip
to
enable
high-
flow
injection
(such
as
in
an
aortogram)
Top

Bottom

(L
to

vertebral
catheter,
cobra
catheter,
and
type
I
Simmons
catheter
(for
visceral
blood
vessels).
These
catheters
all
have
a
preformed
distal
tip
for
selective
catheterization;
the
choice
of
which
one
to
use
depends
on
the
procedure

SELDINGER
TECHNIQUE
Most
procedure
are
done
using
this
technique
By
using
this
technique
we
can
insert
big
catheter
into
small
vessel
To
avoid
collapsing
of
vessel
Puncture
by
needle,
insert
wire
to
maintain
axis,
With
a
series
of
wire
and
catheter
exchange
maneuver
we
can
access
small
vessels
with
big
tubes
having
the
least
trauma

Digital

Angiography
(DSA)
o X-ray
is
taken
and
used
like
a
mask.
The
contrast
is
injected
and
then
an
image
is
subsequently
taken.
o The
resulting
picture
is
subtracted
by
the
mask
and
the
vessels
will
be
shown

can

Radiofrequency
Ablation
Instead
of
puncturing
the
mass
with
just
a
needle,
uses
an
electrode
connected
to
a
radiofrequency
generator.
Produce
heat
like
a
microwave.
Effectively
cooking
the
tumor.
On
the
way
out
the
RF
generator
is
still
active
so
the
needle
track
is
ablated
and
so
there
is
no
issue
of
bleeding
or
hemostasis.
They
are
effectively
cauterized.

Percutaneous

For

of

including

pleural
fluid,
ascites,
and

For
Liver
abscess.
Treating
it
with
antibiotics
is
not
enough.
We
need
to
remove
the
pus
through
sound

Drainage
of

For
cholesystitis,
when
the
patient
is
in
sepsis
and
theres
coagulopathy
the
patient
is
surgically
unstable
and
cant
be
operated
on
they
cant
just
take
the
gall
bladder
out.
Insert
a
catheter
and
drain
the
pus
inside
and
when
the
patient
is
stable,
operate.

There
are

a

on

some

Percutaneous
Transhepatic
Biliary
Drainage
(PTBD)
When
the
patient
has
obstructive
biliary
pathologies
and
the
bile
becomes
stagnant,
he
becomes
prone
to
developing
infection,
which
can
lead
to
sepsis,
then
shock,
or
even
death.
To
avoid
ascending
cholangitis
we
can
put
a
tube
to
drain
the
biliary
tree
so
the
bile
is
free
flowing
and
decreases
the
chance
of
sepsis.
Needle
is
placed
into
liver
and
bile
duct
Guide
wire
is
inserted
through
the
needle
and
down
into
the
bile
duct
Needle
is
removed
and
the
catheter
is
passed
over
the
guide
wire
and
into
the
bile
ducts.

(D),
BOTTOM
(L
to
R):
The
percutaneous
catheter
is
pushed
through
the
stenosed
common
bile
duct,
so
that
bile
is
advanced
inside
the
catheter
towards
the
bowel
loops;
Metallic
Stent
is
placed
into
the
common
bile
duct,
keeping
the
stenosed
area
patent.
Now
the
percutaneous
catheter
can
be
taken
out.
