Acute pulmonary thromboembolism complicating pneumonectomy: successful operative management.

Q Chen1, A T Tang, G M Tsang.   

Abstract

Pulmonary thromboembolism after pneumonectomy carries high fatality. Here we present a case of acute embolism to the left pulmonary artery with thrombus in the right atrium and inferior vena cava following right pneumonectomy. Diagnosis was made clinically and radiologically before proceeding to emergency surgery. Thromboembolectomy was successfully performed on cardiopulmonary bypass and the patient was subsequently discharged home after uneventful recovery.
