Arterial air embolism as a complication of pleurodesis Ali Bidari, MD, Mehdi Mohamadnejad, MD The American Journal of Medicine Volume 112, Issue 5, Pages 426-428 (April 2002) DOI: 10.1016/S0002-9343(01)01121-4

Figure 1 Noncontrast computed tomographic scan of the brain showed a serpiginous air density within one of the left frontal sulcui (arrow) compatible with air embolism. Punctate air densities were also seen in other sections (not shown here). The American Journal of Medicine 2002 112, 426-428DOI: (10.1016/S0002-9343(01)01121-4)

Figure 2 A computed tomographic scan of the brain 1 day after the event revealed left frontal lobe hypodensity (arrow) that was representative of infarction. The American Journal of Medicine 2002 112, 426-428DOI: (10.1016/S0002-9343(01)01121-4)
