Ultrasound guided CVC insertion was performed in the hematological oncological ward in a acute myeloid leukemic patient, thrombocytopenic 20,000, with chronic renal failure and immune system failure in a septic shock state. The CVC was inserted into the right subclavien artery. Due to the fragile state of this patient the CVC was left in place [arterial line] for 6 days until his platelet count was elevated and his shock state overcome with antibiotics. The interventional Radiologist removed the CVC with the use of angioseal device. This case demonstrates that a CVC may be left in place as an arterial line for a number of days until the patient is stabilized and able to undergo an interventional procedure.
