Endovascular therapy for acute severe pulmonary embolism.

Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a major public health problem and accounts for 100,000-180,000 deaths per year in the United States. Current prognostic stratification separates acute PE into massive, submassive, and low-risk by the presence or absence of sustained hypotension, RV dysfunction, and myocardial necrosis.

In this review we will focus on therapies currently available to manage acute massive and submassive PE.
