abstract={Delayed development of a haemothorax after central venous cannulation of the right internal jugular vein is extremely rare. Awareness of this rare complication by the trauma surgeon is essential to avoid attributing the complication to a missed thoracic injury. Prompt chest x-ray is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. Removal of the central line followed by tube thoracostomy remains the mainstay of management. A case of delayed haemothorax following central venous cannulation of the internal jugular vein is presented to highlight this complication followed by a brief review of literature.},
