Abstract
Central venous catheterization is usually carried out using modified Seldinger technique. Usually the mechanical complications such as looping and kinking are associated with the guide wire. We present a case of intravascular looping of a central venous catheter despite straightforward insertion and withdrawal of an intact undamaged guide wire.
