Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is characterized by hypotension and cardiogenic shock due to right ventricular failure, and is associated with a high mortality rate. In this case study, we report a simultaneous pulmonary embolectomy and aortic root replacement in a 71-year-old woman with a known ascending aortic aneurysm who sustained a massive PE following a VATS left upper lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer.
大面积肺栓塞(PE)的特征是由于右心室衰竭导致的低血压和心源性休克,且死亡率很高。在本病例研究中,我们报告了一名71岁女性患者,她已知患有升主动脉瘤,在因非小细胞肺癌接受电视辅助胸腔镜左上叶切除术后发生大面积肺栓塞,随后同时进行了肺动脉栓子切除术和主动脉根部置换术。
