A catheter may be inserted in the right femoral vein for various medical procedures, such as venous access for fluid administration, medication delivery, or diagnostic studies like venography. The femoral vein provides a large and accessible route for catheterization, especially in emergency situations. Additionally, it can be used for interventions such as angioplasty or stent placement in the lower extremities. In some cases, the right femoral approach is preferred for certain cardiac procedures due to anatomical considerations.
