Hydrophilic Polymer Embolism in the Lung as an Adverse Event - Autopsy Case of Thromboembolisms in Multiple Organs Associated With Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia.puted tomography and 1.5-T magnetic resonance imaging were carried out, but lung embolization, acute cerebral infarction, and cerebral venous...
Hydrophilic polymer embolism (HPE) is a rare, likely under-recognized iatrogenic complication, caused by fragmentation of surface materials used on endovascular medical devices. The organs most often involved in HPE are the brain and lungs, resulting in both local and systemic reactions. We present ...
Cutaneous hydrophilic polymer embolism accompanied by acute renal failureBackground Hypohidrosis/anhidrosis are congenital or acquired sweating impairments. Among them, acquired idiopathic generalized anhidrosis/hypohidrosis (AIGA) is the most common, and characterized by favourable response to systemic ...

cutaneous embolismMICROEMBOLIEndovascular procedures that use a hydrophilic polymer-coated device carry a risk of embolization and ischemic complications when used intravascularly. Because these coatings are increasingly used worldwide, it is important to identify potential adverse effects early. Cutaneous ...
