摘要
We studied 21 cases of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) in 67 consecutive cases of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower limbs and 4 cases in 9 selective cases of rheumatic heart disease (RHD). The incidence of PTE in DVT could be inferred as being 31.3%. PTE were diagnosed by 99mTc MAA lung scintiscans. In the DVT cases, lung scintiscan were done right after venography of the legs. Six cases underwent pulmonary angiography, ⅠDSA. As PTE in the DVT cases were all subclinical, only oligemia andvascular "pruning" were noted. Injection of urokinase into the pulmonary artery concerned through a catheter after which intravenous infusion was continued for 10-14 days, only 3 PTE resolved, probably representing early cases.
