Infectious complications are the highest risk in hematology. In this study, subclavian approach and tunnellization are reviewed. Four hundred (400) catheters were evaluated by the Isolator Culture method. Catheters are left in place a long time (mean time 30 days). Colonization occurs rarely (about 10.5%). In hematology, subclavian tunnelized catheter occurs to be a safe and reliable central venous catheter.
