Case Reports

Osteomyelitis of the Clavicle Secondary to Infected Hickman Catheter

Alan B. Kravitz, M.D.

Department of Surgery, The Medical Center of Delaware, Newark, Delaware

A patient receiving home parenteral nutrition developed osteomyelitis of the clavicle associated with a Hickman catheter which had been functioning for 14 months. The infection was treated with bone curettage, parenteral antibiotics, and catheter removal. Although this has been a reported complication of subclavian vein catheters, this is the first reported case associated with a Hickman catheter.
