Pulmonary artery catheter-induced perforation treated with coil embolization.
The past 40 years have taught us much about the use of pulmonary artery catheters and their complications. Pulmonary artery rupture carries high morbidity and mortality, and therefore a high index of suspicion and timely management are key to the survival of patients who suffer from this rare complication. While surgical therapy has been considered the mainstay of treatment, endovascular therap...

Pulmonary artery rupture by a flow-directed balloon-tipped catheter is a rare complication if guidelines for insertion of catheters are strictly applied. It should be stressed that the need for a "confirmed" wedge pressure should be weighed against the very real risk of this potentially fatal complication. Users of this catheter should expect and anticipate distal migration of the catheter tip....
متن کاملAn unusual manifestation of pulmonary artery perforation during pulmonary artery catheter insertion.
P ULMONARY ARTERY balloon-tipped catheters are commonly inserted in critically ill patients as a source of physiologic data useful in planning management and evaluating the efficacy of treatment. Pulmonary artery perforation with resultant massive hemoptysis is a known complication of the use of these catheters, with an occurrence of 0.064% in one large series.’ The perforations with hemorrhage...
متن کاملManagement of massive hemoptysis secondary to catheter-induced perforation of the pulmonary artery during cardiopulmonary bypass.
Pulmonary artery perforation by flow-directed catheters is associated with high mortality, particularly in heparinized patients. We report a recent case and discuss recognition and management.
متن کاملThe pulmonary artery catheter.
Clinical Medicine Vol 2 No 2 March/April 2002 101 The flow-directed pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) has been in clinical use since its introduction by Swan and colleagues in 19701. During that time it has become widely used in critical care units throughout the world and is now the most commonly utilised form of flow monitoring. The haemodynamic data obtained with a PAC are used to monitor and ...
