Abstract: OBJECTIVE: We present three cases in which complications occurred after CT-guided procedures were not carried out, supporting the contention that some complications occurring after CT-guided procedures may not be true procedural complications. CONCLUSION: Although most complications after CT-guided procedures are indeed caused by the antecedent procedure, some complications may be unrelated to the procedure and may in fact occur without any procedure being performed at all.
