What are the lessons that need to be learnt here?
1. Very important to do two views after a port placement. 2. When reading chest x rays always use the idiomatic term "overlying a structure" and not "in a structure"; for example "RIJ catheter overlies right atrium" and not "tip of the RIJ catheter in the right atrium"
A right chest wall port has been placed. Neither the catheter nor catheter tip is intravascular, and terminates along the posterior medial aspect of the right thorax. There was a new development of a large fluid collection within the right hemithorax, which may represent a large right infusothorax from chemotherapy.
