Abstract

The perforation of the intrathoracic internal jugular vein during the placement of an implantable central venous chemoport is a rare complication that is manifested by hemothorax or hemorrhagic shock. Furthermore, inappropriate instillation of a chemotherapeutic agent in the chemoport can cause chemical pleuritis, and the diagnosis of these complications prior to the instillation of chemotherapeutic agents and open thoracic surgery is mandatory. We report a patient with chemical pleuritis and hemothorax following an inappropriate instillation of a chemotherapeutic agent, through the perforated right internal jugular vein after placement of an implantable central venous chemoport. Treatment by embolization using coils and N-butyl cyanoacrylate, after percutaneous drainage, was successful.

항암치료를 위해 흉강 내 속목정맥의 천자를 통한 피하매몰 중심정맥 케모포트(implantable central venous chemoport) 도관의 설치 중 발생할 수 있는 의인성 속목정맥 천공은 매운 드문 합병증 중의 하나로 혈흉이나 출혈성 쇼크를 일으킬 수 있으며, 부적절한 항암제 주입으로 인한 늑막삼출이 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 항암제 주입 전 조기에 진단하여 응급 개흉술을 통해 천공된 속목정맥을 봉합하는 것이 치료 원칙이다. 저자들은 우측 속목정맥을 통한 피하매몰 중심정맥 케모포트의 설치 후 발생한 속목정맥 천공 환자에서 부적절한 항암제 주입으로 인해 발생한 늑막삼출과 혈흉을 개흉술을 시행하지 않고 경피적 배액술 후 코일과 N-butyl cyanoacrylate를 이용한 색전술을 통해 성공적으로 치료한 1예를 경험하였기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.
