Abstract
|
|
|
Peripherally inserted central venous catheters (PICC) are commonly used to provide long term intravascular access for parenteral nutrition and medications in preterm infants, but rarely life-threatening complications associated with malposition of catheter tip such as pericardial effusion may be developed. We report a preterm case of early-onset pericardial effusion related to PICC of which the distal part is angulated and located in the right atrium of heart.
