Subcutaneous Plasmacytoma Metastasis Precipitated by Tunneled Central Venous Catheter Insertion
Extramedullary plasmacytomas are tumors of monoclonal plasma cells arising within soft tissue that uncommonly occur in multiple myeloma patients. While sporadic development of these tumors at cutaneous trauma sites, including venous catheter access sites, has been reported, interventional radiologists seldom encounter this disease. Herein, we describe a case of metastatic subcutaneous plasmacyt...
متن کاملPredistention of the epidural space before catheter insertion reduces the incidence of intravascular epidural catheter insertion.
BACKGROUND Accidental cannulation of an epidural vein is a common complication associated with epidural anesthesia or analgesia. On the basis of a pilot study and previous reports, we tested the hypothesis that predistention of the epidural space with saline before epidural catheterization would ease catheter insertion and decrease the incidence of this complication. METHODS Two-hundred-three...
متن کاملWhat is the best site for central venous catheter insertion in critically ill patients?
The choice of the best central venous access for a particular patient is based on the rate and the severity of failures and complications. Based on two recent papers, internal jugular access is associated with a low rate of severe mechanical complications in the intensive care unit as compared with subclavian access, and it is preferable for short-term access (<5–7 days) and for haemodialysis c...
متن کاملRadiation-associated plasmacytoma following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects over 2 million people in the United States, and this number is expected to rise to over 5 million by the year 2050. For those with symptomatic paroxysmal or persistent AF despite attempts at medical therapy, catheter ablation is a guideline-recommended treatment approach. AF has become the most common indication for invasive electrophysiology testing and treatme...
متن کاملA case of leukemia cutis at the site of a prior catheter insertion.
Leukemia cutis is the cutaneous involvement of leukemic neoplastic cells. It is an uncommon feature of systemic leukemia, and is associated with a poor prognosis. A 20-year-old man presented with a solitary, 2 cm domeshaped, firm, erythematous nodule on the right medial malleolus that was present for 3 months. The patient had a history of venous catheter insertion at the right medial malleolus ...
