Abstract

We present the case of a woman with upper gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to gastric varices requiring endoscopic cyanoacrylate glue and coil embolization. The procedure was complicated by regular, wide-complex tachycardia, with further investigation revealing cardiopulmonary migration of the glue and coil. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
