초록

This is a report of a migrated polyethylene catheter from the arm vein cutdown site into the heart. The patient was a 48 years old male who was operated on for mitral stenosis complicated with pulmonary hypertension. On the 8th postoperative day after open mitral commissurotomy, polyethylene catheter embolization occurred. The catheter was removed successfully with an incision on the proximal basilic vein. The patient recovered uneventfully and discharged without complications.
