Summary: Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty are widely used procedures for patients with symptomatic spinal compression fractures. Cement leakage into the paravertebral veins leading to pulmonary embolism is not an uncommon complication and the risk is increased when treating bone metastases. We present a case and images of a patient with previous vertebral compression fractures from metastatic breast cancer treated with vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty which presented imaging findings consistent with pulmonary cement embolism.   Keywords Pulmonary Embolism; Bone Cements; Vertebroplasty; Kyphoplasty; Fractures, Compression.

O extravasamento de cimento ósseo para as veias paravertebrais com consequente embolia pulmonar não é uma complicação incomum e o risco é superior no tratamento de metástases ósseas. Apresentamos um caso clínico com imagens de uma doente com antecedentes de fraturas vertebrais compressivas por metastização óssea de cancro da mama, tratadas com vertebroplastia e cifoplastia, que evidenciou achados imagiológicos compatíveis com embolia pulmonar por cimento ósseo.   Palavras-chave Embolia Pulmonar; Cimentos ósseos; Vertebroplastia; Cifoplastia; Fraturas, Compressão.SPRMN2023-04-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25748/arp.28000eng2183-13512183-1351Morgado, MargaridaVilares, Ana TeresaBarros Alves, FilipeCastro, RicardoMadureira, António J.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2023-05-05T03:15:36Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/28000Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T10:57:36.506846Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
