Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Treatment for massive PE can include systemic thrombolysis and catheter-directed therapy. We present the case of a patient with massive PE successfully treated with catheter-directed therapy, using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for hemodynamic support, and discuss some of the potential complications associated with this therapy.
大面积肺栓塞（PE）与显著的发病率和死亡率相关。大面积PE的治疗方法可包括全身溶栓和导管定向治疗。我们报告一例通过导管定向治疗成功治疗的大面积PE患者，该治疗使用体外膜肺氧合进行血流动力学支持，并讨论了与该治疗相关的一些潜在并发症。
