The authors present their experience with the totally implanted vascular reservoirs for chemotherapy. Thirty-one reservoirs were implanted in 29 patients. Complications were observed in 19.3% of the cases imposing the removal of 12.9% of them. No reservoir have been lately removed because of infection or obstruction. Based on their results, the authors conclude that the totally implanted reservoir is extremely helpful for patients submitted to chemotherapy for long periods.
