Abstract
Air embolism is a severe and uncommon complication, often iatrogenous, that can occur during many invasive medical procedures and especially with venous central catheter. We report a case of paradoxical cerebral, coronary and cutaneous air embolism, which occurs after a dialysis. Delay in the diagnosis and therefore in the management of this complication unfortunately ended with the death of the patient.
