Abstract

A common site of chemoport implantation is the anterior chest wall. However, it is difficult to needle chemoport and to maintain needles in severely obese patients. Because the skin is thick, it is difficult to find the port and the needle easily comes off. We describe a different safe and easy to replicate method of chemoport placement in a severely obese patient. We placed the chemopot directly above the sternum. It is particularly more useful for very obese patients. This technique is safe and an easy to replicate method of chemoport placement.
