pubmed:abstractText |
Suppurative thrombophlebitis is a potentially lethal intravascular infection associated with the usage of intravenous catheters. Conventional approaches to management include ligation and excision of involved venous structures. These measures may not be feasible in all situations. This paper describes the successful medical/surgical management of a patient with suppurative thrombophlebitis of the major vessels of the chest. When suppurative thrombophlebitis extends into the large central veins and antibiotic therapy fails, surgical intervention may be necessary.
