Systemic air embolism during lung biopsy D. Mokart, A. Sarran, A. Barthélémy, L. Chow-Chine, B. Lelong, L. Fouché, J.-L. Blache British Journal of Anaesthesia Volume 107, Issue 2, Pages 277-278 (August 2011) DOI: 10.1093/bja/aer214 Copyright © 2011 The Author(s) Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Air bubbles are represented by numerous hyper-refringency areas (black arrows) using transthoracic echocardiography. Air bubbles become visible in the pulmonary veins (PV) and then pass successively through the left atrium (LA), the left ventricle (LV), the left ventricle outflow tract (LVOT), and flow into the ascending aorta (AO) and systemic circulation.
