TI  - Pulmonary cement embolism in a child following total elbow replacement for 
      primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) of the humerus.

AB  - Pulmonary bone cement embolism (PCE) is an uncommon event occurring after 
      implantation of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) in orthopaedic surgeries involving 
      adult patients, more so in the elderly. Its incidence in the paediatric 
      population is extremely rare. We herein describe a case of PCE in a 15-year-old 
      girl, 9 days after she underwent total elbow replacement with PMMA placement for 
      a primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) of the distal humerus. This report 
      describes the occurrence of a common post-operative complication of bone cement 
      embolism in an uncommon scenario of total elbow replacement for a bone tumour in 
      a child, which masqueraded initially as acute pneumonitis.
