ABSTRACT
Cannulation of the internaliugular vein was first described by English et al in l969; since then, it has steadily increased in popularity to its present position as one of the methods of choise for CVP monitorimg. But this method of CVP monitoring has some potential compolication such as infection, thrombophlebitis, pneumothorax, hydrothorax, hematoma, air embolism, catheter shearing, nerve injuries & pericardial tamponade, etc. We experienced a case of hydrothorax following internal jugular vein catheterization.

Pulmonary edema may be defined broadly as excessive fluid accumulation in the interstitial and air spaces of the lung. We recently a previously healthy parturient with ritodrine treatment who suddenly developed severe pulmonary edema during a Cesarian Section under Genera) Anesthesia, For this presented cases, we believe that overloading, Ritodrine, oxytocin, ergot derivatives wi11 be the causative factors. We had good result with PEEP, diuretics, and morphines.
