Self-correction of a migrated power-injectable peripherally inserted central catheter following contrast-enhanced computed tomography.

ABSTRACT: The use of power-injectable peripherally inserted central catheter (PIPICC) is a common practice, but displacement of these lines following injection of contrast media has been reported in 15.4% of cases. This report presents imaging evidence of displacement and self-correction of a PIPICC line following contrast-enhanced computed tomography.
