Left-sided yoffa technique: a safe and optimized approach for totally implantable venous access device (TIVAD) placement
The left-sided Yoffa technique offers a safe and effective alternative for TIVAD placement when right-sided access is contraindicated or difficult. Its supraclavicular approach minimizes the risk of complications (pneumothorax, arterial puncture) and ensures an optimal catheter trajectory toward the superior vena cava.
