Abstract :
Central venous access is commonly performed in the care of critically ill patients, for administration of repeated drug treatments.
This routine procedure hasmultiple complications such as cathetermalposition, migration, obstruction, infection, thrombosis and
catheter fraction. We must recognize, consider and be able to manage these complications. We report a successful endovascular
technique using a snare for retrieving broken venous port in a 36-year-old female.
