    Journal: J Invasive Cardiol; 2016 May; 28(5):E49-51. PubMed ID: 27145056.
    Abstract:
    A variety of interventional management approaches exist for the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism (PE). However, when PE is accompanied by residual right heart thrombus, the best therapeutic options are less clear. We describe a novel combined technique of percutaneous aspiration of unstable right atrial thrombus followed by ultrasound-directed thrombolysis of massive PE.
