Catheter malfunction due to spontaneous permcath displacement into medium suprahepatic vein.
One of the last options, when the other possibilities of vascular access present malfunction, is the insertion of a permanent catheter in a central vein, preferentially internal jugular vein. This option is considered when arteriovenous access is impossible. We report a case of malfunction due to a permanent catheter dis-placement solved by vascular interventional radiology.
