Bleeding from esophageal and gastric varices remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality for patients with liver cirrhosis. Currently, therapeutic strategies for gastric variceal bleeding include transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, cyanoacrylate sclerotherapy and hepatic transplantation. Though relatively safe and efficacious, endoscopic sclerotherapy using cyanoacrylate has known complications including infection, bleeding, and distal embolization. This case report describes a patient who became febrile and tachycardic following sclerotherapy and subsequently had an abnormal chest radiograph that prompted further evaluation for pulmonary embolization of the sclerosant. The focuses of this report are the computed tomographic and radiographic findings associated with 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate/lipiodol pulmonary embolization.
