Figure 1
Thoracocentesis is usually performed with the animal in sternal recumbence. A rectangular area in the mid-ventral aspect of the thoracic wall is clipped and prepared aseptically (sometimes bilaterally). The preferred site for thoracocentesis is between the seventh and the ninth intercostal space. © 2016 British Small Animal Veterinary Association

A pleural port kit includes a round tipped fenestrated silicone catheter, which usually is placed within the thoracic cavity and a titanium port provided with a silicone septum, which is placed subcutaneously. This is connected to the fenestrated silicone catheter by means of a blue boot. © 2016 British Small Animal Veterinary Association
