چکیده
A 76 year old woman developed a psoas abscess from vascular seeding of an infected subclavian venous catheter. The presentation was insidious and diagnosis delayed. Despite adequate surgical drainage, the case proved to be fatal. Venous catheters should be regarded as a potential source of septicaemia and occult abscess formation.

متن کاملEndovascular Repair Using Suture-Mediated Closure Devices and Balloon Tamponade following Inadvertent Subclavian Artery Catheterization with Large-Caliber Hemodialysis Catheter
Accidental subclavian artery cannulation is an uncommon but potentially serious complication of central venous catheterization. Removal of a catheter inadvertently placed in the subclavian artery can lead to substantial bleeding, as achieving hemostasis in this area through manual compression presents considerable difficulty. Additionally, surgical treatment might be unsuitable for high-risk pa...
