Özet
Umbilical vessel catheterization is a common procedure in Neonatal Intensive Care Units, especially in very low birthweight infants. Rarely, umbilical artery catheters break, and the retained fragments can cause thrombosis, infection, distal embolization, and even death. Herein, we describe a neonate with clinically significant bilateral limb ischemia developing after removal of a broken umbilical artery catheter. He was under vasodilator treatment in addition to fibrinolytic and anticoagulants. The evolution was favourable.
