    Abstract:
    We report a case of right phrenic nerve paralysis caused accidentally by compression after internal carotid artery puncture. Postoperatively she received respiratory management and conservative treatment after extubation. Cases of phrenic nerve paralysis following cardiac surgery have been reported, but paralysis as a complication of internal jugular vein cannulation by anterior approach is rare.
