Paradoxical emboli, where clots travel from the venous to arterial system, are rare. This case documents both venous and arterial emboli using CT, aiding diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Medicine
  • Radiology
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Paradoxical embolism is a rare condition where a venous thromboembolism travels to the arterial circulation.
  • Diagnosis is often presumptive due to the rarity and complexity of the condition.

Observation:

  • This report details a specific case of paradoxical embolism.
  • Computed tomography (CT) was utilized to visualize the embolic events.

Findings:

  • Both venous and arterial emboli were definitively documented using CT imaging.
  • This provides direct evidence of the embolic pathway in a paradoxical embolism case.

Implications:

  • CT documentation can improve the accuracy of paradoxical embolism diagnosis.
