摘要
Background: Umbilical vein catheterisation is a common and useful procedure in the care of critically ill newborns, but several complications may occur. Patients: We report on a newborn, who developed sepsis and necrotizing pneumonia of the right middle lobe due to extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) Klebsiella following malposition of an umbilical vein catheter into a right pulmonary vein. Results: Due to failed conservative treatment the child required lobectomy of the right middle lobe. Conclusion: Our case highlights the importance of exact determination of the position of central catheters by x-ray and/or ultrasound immediately after placement.
