Abstract

This report describes a case in which serial cross-sectional echocardiographic examinations allowed us to make the diagnosis and to follow anatomical evolution of pulmonary thromboemboli. Frequent (three times a day for seven days) echocardiographic surveillance of thromboemboli allowed us to assess the effectiveness of the therapeutic approach.

Key Words: Cross-sectional echocardiography • pulmonary thromboemboli detection
