The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the feasibility of a method developed to withdraw a port-catheter system that had been implanted with use of the fixed catheter tip technique. Withdrawal of an implanted catheter was required in four patients with advanced liver cancer in whom port-catheter systems had been implanted for performance of repeated hepatic arterial infusion. In all patients, port-catheter systems were successfully removed without complications. In conclusion, an implanted port-catheter system can be removed even when implanted with the fixed catheter tip technique.
