N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate and lipoidol pulmonary embolism (glue embolism).

Asim Javed1, Amjad Salamat.   

Abstract

Glue embolisation is a rare happening and many clinicians who evaluate patients for post sclerotherapy problems may be unaware of this complication. We present a case of pulmonary embolism in a patient of cirrhosis liver secondary to gastric variceal sclerotherapy with N-Butyl-2-cyanoacrylate and lipoidol solution. This is also called glue embolism.
