Abstract Central venous cannulation is routinely done to infuse inotropes, for measuring central venous pressure, for total parenteral infusion, for large-bore venous access, and for infusing chemotherapeutic drugs. Various complications like pneumothorax, hemothorax, chylothorax, malposition, and fracture of catheters are described after central venous cannulation. Malpostioning of a central venous catheter into an anomalously draining left-sided pulmonary vein is a rare complication. We report a case of a patient presenting for carotid body tumor excision in whom the central venous catheter was malpositioned who was found to have a partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage of the left lung.

Many complications are reported with placement of the central venous catheter. They can be varied and graded as minor/insignificant, self-limiting, and not requiring any intervention to major/serious and requiring urgent intervention to save the life of the patient. Most of them can be minimized with certain precautions, use of aids and improved skill and experience of the operator. We are presenting a case report with such a complication, which is much rarer, happened, even in the hands of a very senior and experienced operator, requiring urgent intervention.
