Air embolism is a rare clinical entity that must be well recognized with high morbidity and mortality rates. Sensitive early diagnosis methods are available for air embolism, but these methods are not always easy to reach. With the detection of venous air embolism, mortality and morbidity can be reduced by rapid aspiration of air and concomitant treatment. It is important to recognize and prevent the problems that embolism may cause in the early period. In venous air embolism, the amount of aspirated air is directly proportional to mortality and morbidity. The most important approach here is to try to prevent the development of air embolism and to make an early diagnosis in possible cases, keeping in mind that it can always develop. In this case report, we present a 51-year-old female patient with the diagnosis of air embolism in the postoperative period and the treatments applied.
