Ünlü et al. (2022) conducted a case report in Pulmonary embolism secondary to cyanoacrylate injection (n=1). Endoscopic cyanoacrylate (N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate) injection was evaluated. A 73-year-old man developed asymptomatic, incidentally detected multiple pulmonary emboli three months after receiving an endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection for bleeding gastric varices.
