Pulmoner endarterektomi sonrası masif pulmoner emboli: Olgu sunumu

Pulmoner endarterektomi, pulmoner embolinin bir komplikasyonu olabilen kronik tromboembolik pulmoner hipertansiyon için birincil seçenektir. Burada, kliniğimize pulmoner endarterektomi sonrası antikoagülan uyumsuzluğu nedeniyle masif pulmoner emboli ile başvuran, 70 yaşında bir kadın hastamızı sunduk.
