Abstract:

Cannulation of the subclavian vein (SCV) has been associated with some of the inherent risks. Post procedure chest x-ray is routinely done to confirm correct position and rule out any complication. Malpositioning of the CVC is although common but is a serious complication of central line placement. We discuss such a case of malpositioned CVC into left subclavian vein through right sided subclavian approach.
