Abstract Arterial air embolism is an infrequent but often disastrous complication of various thoracic therapeutic procedures. Occasionally it may result paradoxically from air entering the systemic veins and reaching the systemic arteries through a septal defect, or possibly by other mechanisms.

In 134 major peripheral emboli involving 160 limbs in 114 patients, the limb survival rate was 85% and the hospital mortality rate was 30%. Embolectomy was performed for all nongangrenous limbs (82) with persistently severe ischemia. Limb survival was 92% when embolectomy was done within the first 12 hours (after embolism), 82% in the 12-to 48-hour ...

AbstractMassive hemoptysis is a highly morbid medical condition with up to 75% mortality with conservative treatment. Bronchial artery embolization has emerged as the common treatment for both acute massive hemoptysis and chronic hemoptysis. This article will review the clinical presentation, bronchial artery anatomy, embolization procedure ...

EMBOLIC disease is not an uncommon entity. It is, perhaps, a poorly understood emergency, as may be witnessed by its delayed recognition and by its varied and even harmful treatment, both by the general surgeon and by the general practitioner. The present study is comprised of a survey of 85 patients admitted to the University Hospitals over an 18-year

The Treatment of Arterial Embolism
New England Journal of Medicine, 1948ALTHOUGH doctors since the time of William Harvey may have had some conception of the pathologic physiology of thrombosis and embolism and although John Hunter,1 in 1794, reported intravascular coagulation occurring during life, it was not until the time of Virchow2 (1845) that arterial embolism was clearly described and until later in the century ...

Selective Arterial Embolization as a First-Line Treatment for Postpartum Hematomas
Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2013BACKGROUND: Postpartum hematomas are a potentially serious obstetric complication for which management options are not standardized. We report successful treatment of a large postpartum hematoma using arterial embolization as primary approach. CASE: A 29-

ABSTRACTThe use of uterine artery embolization is a new approach in the treatment of uterine fibroids. Embolization is a technique in which blood vessels that supply nutrients and oxygen to fibroids are blocked. This blockage causes the fibroid muscle cells to degenerate and form scar tissue, thus shrinking the fibroid.

Massive hemoptysis is a life-threatening emergency. Chest radiograph, computed tomography, and bronchoscopy play a complementary role in diagnosing the underlying cause of hemorrhage and localizing the bleeding site. Bronchial artery embolization remains the primary and most effective method in controlling massive hemoptysis. Bronchial and nonbronchial

Uterine artery embolization for leiomyomata
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2001To determine whether uterine artery embolization is safe and effective for treating uterine leiomyomata.We analyzed 200 consecutive patients (61 reported previously) undergoing uterine artery embolization for the treatment of uterine leiomyomata at a single institution.
