    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1986; 25(2):63-8. PubMed ID: 3716380.
    Abstract:
    The results are reported from a retrospective study on the case histories of 41 deceased with recurrent infarction form of pulmonary thrombembolism. That form of the disease for a period of 5 years (1980-1984) was established to be found in 19.1% of all cases with pulmonary thrombembolism. The males were more often affected, with the predomination of the patients over 60 years of age; the patients with internal diseases were more than the surgical patients, with a probable origin of emboli from the femoral and pelvic veins in 58.5%. The most frequent clinical symptoms are dyspnea, tumid cervical veins and moist rales in the lungs. More than half of the patients manifest "masks" of the disease, broncho-pulmonary being the most-often established one.
