초록
The use of subcutaneously tunneled, cuffed central venous catheters like Broviac's or Hickman's has increased and complications related to catheter removal has also increased. However, there are only few reports of complications that occur at the time of removal. The authors report an unusual case of catheter fracture during removal of Broviac catheter.
