Iatrogenic non-thrombotic pulmonary embolism is a rare cause of pulmonary embolism. This case demonstrates the unusual imaging findings associated with pulmonary migration of Precipitating Hydrophobic Injectable Liquid, a liquid embolization material most commonly used in interventional neuroradiological procedures. Chest X-ray and CT Pulmonary Angiogram images are shown. The case highlights the importance of a thorough clinical history, including past medical history, when interpreting radiological studies.
医源性非血栓性肺栓塞是肺栓塞的一种罕见病因。本病例展示了与沉淀型疏水可注射液体(一种最常用于介入神经放射学手术的液体栓塞材料)肺部迁移相关的异常影像学表现。文中展示了胸部X光和CT肺血管造影图像。该病例强调了在解读放射学检查结果时全面临床病史(包括既往病史)的重要性。
