Successful resuscitation of patient with massive coronary air embolism occluding two vessels during coronary angiography--a case report.

摘要

Massive coronary air embolism is usually disastrous although successful resuscitation has been reported previously. To what extent a patient with coronary air embolism can be resuscitated is not known. The authors report a rare case of massive air embolism to the left coronary arteries and successful resuscitation by vigilantly maintaining an effective driving force to dissipate the air lock.
