“…HS remains a rare but definitive complication of IJV catheterization, even in the era of ultrasound. 25 Only a few case reports have described HS caused by IJV catheterization. In one study 1 comprising 40 patients, 5% of patients developed HS after IJV catheterization.…”

THE RISK FACTORS, clinical manifestation, and preventive measures of Horner syndrome (HS) caused by internal jugular vein (IJV) catheterization were explored. Electronic databases were searched to identify all case reports of HS caused by IJV catheterization. Two authors independently extracted literature characteristics, IJV catheterization method, clinical manifestations, and prognosis data. Twenty case reports (22 patients in total) were included, 18 of which were written in English and the other 2 in Chinese. Patients were between 19 months to 65 years old, and clinical manifestations included ptosis (n = 22), miosis (n = 21), anhidrosis (n = 8), enophthalmos (n = 3), and hoarseness (n = 1). Onset of HS manifestation ranged from a few hours to 19 days after the procedure. Eight patients with ptosis, 6 patients with miosis, and 1 patient with hoarseness recovered during follow-up. Of the 22 patients, 8 underwent more than 1 attempt of IJV catheterization. Six patients experienced accidental carotid artery puncture or hematoma formation during or after IJV catheterization. Ultrasound guidance was applied in 4 patients and anatomic landmark technique was used in the other 18 patients. The left IJV was catheterized in 3 patients, and the right IJV was catheterized in 19 patients. Repeated attempts of puncture, anatomic landmark technique, accidental carotid artery puncture, or hematoma formation may increase the possibility of HS. Ptosis and miosis are the most common manifestations of HS caused by IJV catheterization.

“…According to previous reports, injury to the cervical sympathetic nerve trunk (CSNT) causing Horner syndrome, injury to the brachial plexus, phrenic nerve, and vagus nerve were reported as being uncommon complications of CV access via the IJV [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Butty et al reported in their prospective study that the frequency of Horner syndrome after CV catheter insertion was 2%.…”

Pneumothorax and unintended arterial puncture are well-known complications of central venous (CV) access via the internal jugular vein (IJV), whereas injury to nerves around the IJV is a relatively rare complication. We describe the case of a male patient in his 60s who developed Horner syndrome after CV port placement via the IJV. We also point out the anatomical nerve structures around the IJV that clinicians should be aware of in order to minimize the risk of nerve injury during CV access. Additionally, with a brief literature review, we describe other nerve injuries that can be caused by CV access.

“…Another possible cause of Horner's syndrome implicated is dissection of the carotid artery, with associated risk of severe cerebrovascular complications accordingly we have excluded carotid artery dissection in our patient. Hematoma developing at the cannulation site may cause direct compression and damage the stellate ganglia or its associated sympathetic neurons that supply the eye, which are embedded in the carotid sheath with the internal jugular vein [8].…”

Central venous catheter (CVC) insertion is a common procedure in operation theaters and intensive care units (ICU). The procedure is performed through anatomical landmark technique, open surgical procedure, and ultrasound-assisted insertion. In the 1990s, ultrasound guidance of CVC insertion has been advocated as a means to reduce mechanical complications and placement failures compared with the landmark technique. Still CVC complications can be related to insertion, indwelling, or extraction. There is a need for continuous monitoring to avoid possible risk factors so as to minimize the morbidity and mortality.
