ABSTRACT
A 54 year-old male admitted to our hospital with sudden onset shortness of breath, chest and back pain, weakness, and fever. Chest radiography and CT examination revealed consolidations and nodular densities 1-2 cm sized in both lungs. Swelling and redness were noticed in the dorsal aspect of patients’ right hand where intravenous route had been done. We, therefore, diagnosed septic pulmonary embolism secondary to peripheral intravenous cannula. The patient’s status was significantly improved after the antibiotic treatment
