Rib erosion : late complication of long-standing biliary drainage catheters / A. Severini, M. Bellomi, G. Cozzi, L. Bellegotti, A. Lattuada. - In: RADIOLOGY. - ISSN 0033-8419. - 150:3(1984 Mar), pp. 666-666.
Abstract:
Complications at the level of the thoracic wall during biliary drainage are rare. Two cases of rib erosion manifested more than 15 months after insertion of a percutaneous drainage catheter are reported. The contact of the catheter with the ribs and the extension to the periosteum and bony tissue of granulomatous processes are discussed as pathogenetic mechanisms.
