re port catheter placement, plse sm
Subject: re port catheter placement, plse sm

The patient had port catheter placement. It was not an easy access surgery and it was placed via a left internal jugular approach and even the initial film showed it curling at the
s/l juxta??? juctious??? subclavian vein with the tip either in the superior vena cava or in an azygous branch.

Can't quite make out what he is saying there. Anyone have an idea? TIA.
