A Rare Complication of Central Venous Catheter Removal: Cerebral Air Embolism

Öz

Cerebral air embolism (CAE) is a rare complication of dialysis catheter use. Although CAE often occurs after central venous catheter (CVC) insertion, it has also been reported to rarely occur as a result of CVC removal. A 67-year-old male patient was quickly brought to the emergency room after he experienced altered consciousness, inability to speak, and weakness on the right side immediately after removal of the CVC inserted into the right jugular vein while the patient was in a sitting position. In his examination, he had confusion and spontaneous eye opening; there was no cooperation; left upper and lower extremities were plegic; and he had left plantar reflex (PR) extensor response. In the brain computed tomography (CT), air images were found in the right cerebral hemisphere, occipital region, and right temporal region. Thorax CT revealed air density within the lumen in the right jugular vein. Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging revealed diffusion restriction in the right parietal lobe posterior, especially in the subcortical area, consistent with pronounced subacute ischemia. The patient was diagnosed with CAE, and hyperbaric oxygen was started for his treatment. The patient was intubated upon worsening in the follow-ups and taken to the intensive care unit.
