“…It turned out that she didn't react well this time. Her CT scan showed multiple patchy and striped hyperdense shadows in both lungs, and nodular calcification in some lesions (Figure 1D) [7]. The infectious diseases physician, considering of the result of CT, suggested that we should add moxifloxacin (HCl) to the anti-infection treatment at day 3 for the suspected diagnosis of lung As to the fractured catheter, we found the cut at the end of broken catheter (Figures 1B and Figure 2D).…”

Background: Temporary or permanent central venous catheter (CVC) insertion has been performed frequently for hemodialysis treatment. The loss of a broken CVC into the circulation is a rare and preventable complication. Here, we report a peculiarly case of a missed temporary CVC after using Moxifloxacin. Case presentation:We report a 53-year-old uremia woman who was treated with moxifloxacin, fractured her CVC which migrated from right internal jugular vein to right atrium. After the discontinuation of moxifloxacin, her abnormal behavior disappeared.Conclusions: CVC loss was rarely reported in hemodialysis patients, especially after using moxifloxacin. We report this case to emphasize the side effect of a commonly used drug and make the clinicians to be cautious when they use moxifloxacin in uremia patients with CVC who have a risk to be more susceptible to have drug adverse effect. In systemically reviewing the literature, this is the first case report of moxifloxacin inducing abnormal behavior in a patient on hemodialysis to fracture CVC.
