Fig Example of an intentionally staged Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow (HeRO; Merit Medical, South Jordan, Utah) insertion in a 67-year-old man with a history of multiple prior bilateral extremity permanent accesses and endovascular procedures. A, A contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography maximal projection image demonstrates extensive occlusion of all of the central veins of the chest. B, A digitally subtracted venogram from the right internal jugular vein demonstrates chronic occlusion of the central veins, including a superior vena cava- to-left brachiocephalic vein stent. C, After recanalization to the right atrium, a tunneled central venous catheter is inserted across the extensive venous occlusions as a placeholder for guidewire access during HeRO graft insertion. D, A chest radiograph demonstrates a successfully inserted HeRO device with the tip in the right atrium performed 3 weeks after recanalization.
