A case is described where a near-fatal hemothorax developed in a child (age 13 months) right after the removal of the subclavian vein catheter. The catheter was introduced a week earlier and it had functioned without disorder. The possible mechanism of the complication is discussed. Even though this kind of complication is very rare, we recommend that the patients, especially children, must be carefully watched also after removal of the subclavian vein catheter to find a possibly life-threatening complication immediately.
本文描述了一例13个月大儿童在拔除锁骨下静脉导管后立即发生近乎致命性血胸的病例。该导管一周前置入，此前功能正常。文中讨论了该并发症可能的发生机制。尽管这种并发症非常罕见，但我们建议，尤其是对于儿童患者，在拔除锁骨下静脉导管后也必须仔细观察，以便能立即发现可能危及生命的并发症。
