Catheter-based interventions provide an important alternative to medical surgical management of massive central pulmonary thromboembolism. Because this option is increasingly being used, it is important to recognize that not all pulmonary thromboemboli are bland. The authors describe two cases in which tumor masqueraded as bland thromboembolism. Identification of tumor thromboembolism may help to alter future work-ups, provide useful prognostic information for a patient, and affect future treatment options.
基于导管的介入治疗为大规模中心型肺血栓栓塞症的内科及外科治疗提供了一种重要的替代方法。由于这种治疗方法的使用越来越广泛，因此认识到并非所有的肺血栓栓塞都是单纯性的很重要。作者描述了两例肿瘤伪装成单纯性血栓栓塞的病例。识别肿瘤性血栓栓塞可能有助于改变未来的检查方案，为患者提供有用的预后信息，并影响未来的治疗选择。
