Removal of subclavian port - cap


Posted: Aug 19, 2010

Hey All!

I'm typing a report for a removal of a left subclavian subcutaneous tunneled venous access device and reservoir.

The doctor reports the following as the findings:

Intact left subclavian (___) and port.  It s/l he is says "singulum." 

Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

Thank you so much.
