My heart was in my mouth! It reminded me of the contrast studies we were trying to achieve when we were doing the intrahepatic shunt. You do it better when you are not even trying! x

Air embolism is definitely reported as a potential risk of doing contrast studies. When I worked at the Vet School we used CO2 and not air for this reason. The complication that we saw here was a whole other level. There is only one other case report in a cat showing this. I don’t think this should stop us doing these studies… but it definitely made me STOP… and think!… and panic a bit! x

The contrast has leaked in to the vena cava! I cam up to a point of resistance with the urinary catheter at the level of the prostate. Injected contrast under a normal amount of pressure. I presume that the disease within the prostate was so severe that it allowed contrast leakage through the tissue. It just blows my mind that the path of least resistance was the vena cava!!! Scott 🙂

This is a slightly more normal urethral study. In this image you can see some contrast entering the bladder:
