There are very few detailed reports on the cause of death in patients with Parkinson syndrome, and most reports lack postmortem verification. Pulmonary embolism has been reported as an infrequent terminal event. We reviewed the results of 60 complete autopsies performed on patients with Parkinson syndrome personally cared for at our institution. Pulmonary embolism was second only to pneumonia as the most common cause of death overall.
关于帕金森综合征患者的死因，详细报告极少，且大多数报告缺乏尸检验证。肺栓塞作为一种罕见的终末期事件已有报道。我们回顾了在我们机构亲自护理的帕金森综合征患者进行的60例完整尸检结果。肺栓塞是总体上仅次于肺炎的最常见死因。
