Abstract

Migration of the peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) into the azygos vein (AV) occurs only infrequently. It is even rarer for the PICC to be severed during severance of the AV in the course of esophageal cancer surgery, and currently there are almost no reports on the treatment of this complication.
