Life-threatening massive pulmonary embolism rescued by venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Abstract Background Despite quick implementation of reperfusion therapies, a few patients with high-risk, acute, massive, pulmonary embolism (PE) remain highly hemodynamically unstable. Others have absolute contraindication to receive reperfusion therapies. Venoarterial-extracorporeal membrane oxyge...
