Abstract

Migration of central venous catheters into the heart is a rare complication, we present a case of Port-A-cath migration and looping in the right sided chambers where both ends were trapped in the hepatic vein, the catheter was looped in the pulmonary artery, the dislodgment of the catheter was confirmed by chest X ray then it was percutanously retrieved using pig tail catheter and goose neck snare.
