Eleven of these 18 patients immediately improved (S group). This procedure was unsuccessful in other seven patients (F group). Thirteen patients survived (72 percent). The time lag between the first episode of pu...

متن کاملAcute pulmonary embolectomy: a contemporary approach.
BACKGROUND Acute pulmonary embolism confers a high mortality rate despite advances in diagnosis and therapy. Thrombolysis is often effective but has a high frequency of major bleeding complications, especially intracranial hemorrhage. Therefore, we liberalized our criteria for acute pulmonary embolectomy and considered operating on patients with anatomically extensive pulmonary embolism and con...
متن کاملSurgical Embolectomy for Acute Pulmonary Thromboembolism
Acute pulmonary thromboembolism is a catastrophic event, especially for hospitalized patients. The prognosis of pulmonary thromboembolism depends on the degree of pulmonary arterial occlusion. The mortality of massive pulmonary embolism is reportedly as high as 25% without cardiopulmonary arrest and 65% with cardiopulmonary arrest. In patients with unstable hemodynamics due to pulmonary thrombo...
