Abstract

The surgical treatment of pulmonary embolectomy is currently indicated for acute massive obstruction of the pulmonary artery with severe haemodynamic failure and, as in this case, when medical treatment with anticoagulants or thrombolytic drugs is contraindicated. In this work, the Authors focus on the technique of unilateral pulmonary embolectomy through a median sternotomy; this approach allowed an easier and safer embolectomy without extracorporeal circulation.
