"PERT-inent" Management: The Role of the Pulmonary Embolus Response Team in Managing Paradoxical Embolus in Transit.
CJC open. 2020 November
A 52-year-old man presented with palpitations and dyspnea. Extensive bilateral pulmonary emboli (PEs) were identified on computed tomography pulmonary angiogram. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a mobile bi-atrial thrombus straddling the interatrial septum. Consensus decision of a multidisciplinary pulmonary embolus response team was made for emergency thrombectomy of the pulmonary and intra-cardiac clot. Intraoperatively, a patent foramen ovale was identified and repaired. He had an excellent outcome and was discharged home on oral anticoagulation. In this unique case of a bi-atrial thrombus and sub-massive PEs, we demonstrate the utility of dedicated pulmonary embolus response teams in providing rapid and individualized management decisions for complex PE patients.
