Özet
Venous access with a central catheter is typically a necessary technique for hemodialysis. Although, central venous catheters are widely used, they may cause life-threatening complications by migration of fractured catheter pieces. Thus, venous catheters should be controlled routinely by medical staff or the patients themselves. In this paper we report a case of a fractured catheter with vena cava migration in which there were no symptoms and describe the non-surgical retrieval of the migrated catheter by snare technique.
