What is Intracardiac and Pulmonary Cement Embolism after Percutaneous Vertebroplasty about?

The article presents a clinical case of embolism with bone cement of the right ventricle of the heart and pulmonary artery after percutaneous vertebroplasty in a patient aged 63 years. According to the results of a comprehensive examination using ultrasound and x-ray methods, three foreign bodies were found: in the right ventricle cavity, in the trunk of the pulmonary artery, in the branches of the left pulmonary artery. Considering the stable condition, normal blood oxygen saturation, the lack of influence of formations on intracardiac hemodynamics, it was decided to refrain from surgery, since the risk of intervention exceeded the possible benefit. Conservative treatment tactics and dynamic observation were chosen. The literature data on the frequency of such events and tactics of management of these patients are presented.
