Three serial cases of fatal venous air embolism were reported after mandibular prosthetic dental surgery. Initially attributed to anesthetic factors, the deaths resulted from intraosseous irrigation with coolant tap water and air. Pulmonary edema was seen on chest roentgenograms and might have suggested the cause of death.
下颌义齿修复手术后报告了三例致命性静脉空气栓塞的连续病例。最初认为死亡与麻醉因素有关，而实际上是由于使用冷却用的自来水和空气进行骨内冲洗所致。胸部X线片显示有肺水肿，这可能提示了死亡原因。
