The use of chronic intravenous cannulae implanted in the jugular vein of mice utilizing
techniques previously developed for larger rodents is discussed. Two cannula designs and
a chronic infusion chamber are illustrated. Cannula insertion depths for mice of three strains
and various body weights, and estimates of operative mortality and cannula durability are
given.
