ABSTRACT
Central venous line catheterization is the main route for therapeutic intervention in critically ill patients. Despite the relatively common complications, the femoral vein is a standard route for catheterization. This is a case report of a rare preventable complication of migration of the guide wire and catheter from the femoral vein through the systemic circulation in a 75-year-old critically ill man in a university hospital in Saudi Arabia
