Cavography with hydrogen peroxide. Accidental injection of hydrogen peroxide into the inferior vena cava
Resumen: Contrast cavography during removal of a vena cava filter in pa- tients treated via thrombectomy for pulmonary embolism is a widely performed procedure, which may involve potentially serious com- plications if the human factor fails. Accidental injection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) after mistaking it for contrast material can have fatal consequences. We present the case of a patient who was acciden- tally injected with a high quantity of hydrogen peroxide. The prepa- ration of a preoperative checklist, the amount of H202 injected and the operator’s skill in aspirating the substance are decisive factors in avoiding such complications.
