Overview
The authors present a case review of a 30-year old patient, who developed central pleural effusion, a complication related to central venous catheterization and the consequent use of the central venous line. The authors aim to highlight potential complications of the method. The interesting feature of this case is the fact, that no apparent mistakes in the venous line introduction or its later use have been recorded.
Key words:
complications – central venous catheter/central venous line – pleural effusion
