Systemic Air Embolism Following Diagnostic Bronchoscopy
A 51-year-old man was admitted to have a nodule evaluated using chest computed tomography (CT). Shortly after curetting and transbronchial biopsies via bronchoscopy, hypotension, bradycardia, unconsciousness, and left hemiplegia appeared and resolved within one hour. Head CT showed cerebral air embolism. The following day, lower left quadrant pain developed. Pneumatosis intestinalis on abdominal CT and elevation of creatine kinase and troponin T levels indicated air embolism in the mesenteric and coronary arteries. Some reports have documented cerebral air embolism alone after bronchoscopy; however, we should consider systemic air embolism, even when encountering a patient without specific symptoms related to any organ.
