  • Title: [Perforation of the right ventricle by a central venous catheter (author's transl)].
    Author: Euler-Rolle J, Vécsei W, Stöckele G.
    Journal: Prakt Anaesth; 1976 Dec; 11(6):421-3. PubMed ID: 1013056.
    Abstract:
    Two letal iatrogenic cardiac perforations by a subclavian catheter are reported. The cause of this rare but most serious complication is based on the sliding down of a subclavian catheter left in for 9 days in one case, in the other one on the introduction of a polyvinyl-catheter into the right ventricle.
