Abstract

A 25-year-old female presented with altered sensorium and left lower limb arterio-venous thrombosis. The patient has a history of young stroke (post mechanical thrombectomy status). Detailed evaluation suggested that patient has extensive venous thrombosis all over the upper limb and neck veins. Considering a difficult venous access, central line was planned in the left internal jugular vein. Chest x-ray done after placing the central line showed displacement of catheter tip.
