Effective Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism and Deep Vein Thrombosis: Insights From a Case Series on Procedure Benefits

Pulmonary thromboembolectomy is an essential intervention for managing acute pulmonary embolism (PE), with various treatment approaches including systemic thrombolysis, open surgical embolectomy, and percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy. Multimodal approaches are crucial for improving outcomes in massive and submassive PE cases, with integration across disciplines such as vascular surgery and interventional radiology enhancing comprehensive care. This manuscript will discuss a case series featuring two patients diagnosed with acute PE. Both underwent successful percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy, demonstrating the procedure's effectiveness in improving outcomes across different patient profiles. These cases highlight the critical importance of early diagnosis and subsequent thrombectomy in treating acute PE.
