Preliminary results of attempts of pulmonary artery thrombi fragmentation after venous embolism are presented. Fragmentation is directly obtained by angiographic catheters (F 9 or 10). By this method we attempted to remove the block of some pulmonary branches, in order to obtain a perfusion of them and to improve fibrinolysis. This method is useful in patients who are not candidated for surgical embolectomy.
