Embolization of detached fragments of intravenous plastic catheter
Der Anaesthesist
|October 1, 1978
Abstract:
Three cases of embolization by detached fragments of "Intracath" intravenous catheters are described. In two, successful surgical removal was performed, whilst in the third, due to the poor general condition of the patient, no attempt at removal was made and after long-term observation, there were no untoward side effects.
