“…[5]. A compromise of the central pulmonary arteries or of two or more lobar arteries by multi-detector contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) and confirmed by pulmonary angiography during the procedure was defined as massive PE [11,12] (Fig. 1).…”
This study demonstrates safety and effectiveness of percutaneous mechanical aspiration thrombectomy in patients with massive PE with a large thrombus burden.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
