Brachiocephalic Vein Injury Leading to Massive Hemothorax Following the Insertion of a Tunneled Dialysis Catheter Requiring Surgical Intervention for Repair: Report of a Rare Case

Dialysis catheters are commonly used tools for patients requiring hemodialysis. A dilator with a large caliber is used to insert such a catheter, which in turn can result in serious vascular injury leading to rare complications like hemothorax. Common treatment options for such vascular injuries com...

description Dialysis catheters are commonly used tools for patients requiring hemodialysis. A dilator with a large caliber is used to insert such a catheter, which in turn can result in serious vascular injury leading to rare complications like hemothorax. Common treatment options for such vascular injuries comprise surgical repair by thoracotomy or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and endovascular repair. We herein report a case of a brachiocephalic vein injury and massive right-sided hemothorax following the insertion of a tunneled dialysis catheter in the right internal jugular vein, treated successfully by our team at Square Hospitals Ltd.
