This technique involves injecting polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), commonly known as bone cement, into the affected vertebral body. Cement embolism, where PMMA migrates to other organs, can occur but is often asymptomatic and may be discovered incidentally during imaging for unrelated issues. This report describes a 38-year-old asymptomatic female who was found to have cement emboli in the right ventricle following percutaneous vertebroplasty. https://pubs.sciepub.com/ajmcr/12/8/5/ajmcr-12-8-5.pdf Vertebroplasty Kyphoplasty cement embolism CXR CT
