Abstract: Central venous catheterization plays an important role in the rescue of critically patients. Commonly used central veins in clinical practice include subclavian vein, internal jugular vein, and femoral vein. Serious complications after catheterization can endanger patients′ lives in severe cases. It is necessary to improve the understanding and treatment of serious complications of central vein catheterization in clinical work. A case of iliac vein dissection caused by right femoral vein catheterization was summarized in this article, and the catheter was successfully removed under digital subtraction angiography direct vision after the distal end of the catheter penetrated the vascular wall and reached the peritonea, which provided reference for the treatment of iatrogenic injury caused by central vein catheterization.
