- W3022276040 abstract "The pulmonary circulation can be blocked by embolism, which can be gas, thrombus, fat, tumor, or foreign body. The architecture of the microvasculature is well adapted to minimize the resultant infarct. The large numbers of pulmonary capillaries arise from metarterioles at right angles, and there are abundant anastomoses throughout the microcirculation. This preserves circulation distal to the impaction of a small embolus. An embolus can arise from pneumothorax and pulmonary barotrauma but is most commonly iatrogenic during either neurosurgery or cardiac surgery. The compressed air was formerly used to increase the speed of a blood transfusion and this was associated with some disastrous cases of embolism if the blood was exhausted before the pressure was released. There is some small degree of air embolism that is almost inevitable in all types of intravenous therapy. In neurosurgery, the usual source of air embolism is the use of the sitting position for posterior fossa surgery. This results in a subatmospheric venous pressure at the operative site and air can enter dural veins that are held open by their structure." @default.
