Abstract

Background/Objectives: Central venous access is an essential part of neonatal care. In addition, a thorough knowledge of the techniques for cannulation and placement of venous lines Methods/Statistical analysis: We describe percutaneous cannulation of the subclavian vein and case of breakage of guidewire during cannulation in a infants and describe the condition. Findings: It showed that the distal portion of the guidewire had been cut and left twisted under the clavicle. The tip of the guidewire was found in the tissue below the subclavian vein and surgically removed. Improvements/Applications: The standard approach, as well as potential difficulties and other considerations are described with literature review.
