ABSTRACT
This is the report of a case of breakage and detachment in the pleural cavity of the tip of a nearly new Abrams needle during performance of a pleural biopsy. We have not found any reference in the literature to similar accidents and do not know what later complications may be produced by the metal body in the pleural cavity. In this case, there have been no complications 12 months after the incident.
