摘要
The treatment of massive pulmonary embolus remains controversial. We describe the first report of the successful use of the thrombolytic agent, tenecteplase, in treating a hypotensive elderly patient with a saddle embolus. A brief review of the current literature concerning thrombolysis for massive pulmonary embolus is given. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
