Deskripsi
A 76-year-old smoker was referred to the interventional radiology team for thermal ablation of a solitary colorectal pulmonary metastasis. He underwent percutaneous microwave ablation that was complicated with extensive surgical emphysema due to an alveolar-pleural fistula. Percutaneous computed tomography (CT) guided glue embolization was performed resulting in fistula occlusion and resolution of surgical emphysema.
