Arthroscopic shoulder surgery is generally accepted as a popular tool for diagnostic and therapeutic approach to various shoulder lesions. Arthroscopic surgery is well known for its safety, less invasiveness and rare complication, but it can also cause life-threatening events which include soft tissue edema surrounding airway, pulmonary embolism, pneumothorax and so on. The author experienced a fatal case of pulmonary edema during shoulder arthroscopic surgery which resulted from leakage of irrigation fluid. The course of arthroscopic procedure, clinical progression and special attention for forensic pathologists and clinicians will be discussed.
Key words : arthroscopic surgery, extraarticular leakage, irrigation fluid, pulmonary edema
