D istal embolization (DE) occurs frequently during femoropopliteal (FP) interventions. Treatment of FP atherosclerotic lesions with balloon angioplasty, stenting, atherectomy, embolectomy, or catheter-directed lysis is likely to yield significant debris.1-11 Despite a high rate of DE reaching 100% in some reports,3,10 data suggest that only 2% to 3% of patients will eventually require additiona...

متن کاملVenous Embolization of a Lower Extremity Projectile
Foreign body migration into the vasculature and subsequent embolization is a rare complication of both medical procedures and penetrating trauma. Endovascular filters, wires, and pins have been found to travel through the vasculature resulting in a variety of complications, including death [1]. In the case of penetrating trauma, the incidence of bullet migration into the vasculature is approxim...
