All: What is the name of the complications of an inadvertent puncture of
the lymph vessel (usually in the subclavian area) with a central line
placement?
Thanks

I promise to send these MRI compatible manufactures tomorrow. It's been
a busy PICC day. :)

Can the stylet wire be sheared if the catheter is clamped while the wire
is being pulled out?

I can not even imagine how a stylet wire could be sheared. Lynn

Sorry about the terminology. Yes it was the stylet that sheared.
The wire was retrieved without incident, and apparently was approx.
8" in length.
So back to the original question, has anyone else had that experience?
