| Abstract: |
Misplacement of pericardiocentesis catheter in central veins is a rare complication that can be managed with several methods. In this case, we report a percutaneous image-guided plug-assisted management of a misplaced pericardiocentesis catheter into the inferior vena cava through a transhepatic tract successfully occluded. This minimally invasive technique was not previously described in this setting and had a favorable long-term outcome. Plain language summary: Clinical case of a minimally invasive technique guided by imaging to fix a complication of a misplaced drainage catheter for pericardial hemorrhage This clinical case reports how to manage, using a minimally invasive technique guided by imaging, an accidental puncture of the liver and the inferior vena cava during a pericardial hemorrhage drainage. The outcome was good, with technical success and a favorable outcome for the patient. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
