Abstract EN
Perioperative pulmonary embolism can go undetected until the sudden onset of cardiopulmonary collapse.
Point of care echocardiography in such setting can narrow the differential diagnosis of precipitous instability and facilitate tailored, rather than empiric, therapy in the event of a massive pulmonary embolism.
We describe the diagnosis and successful multidisciplinary management of intraoperative massive pulmonary embolism aided by both transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography.
Key aspects regarding the classification and treatment of pulmonary embolism are subsequently reviewed.
