Overview
Emergency surgical embolectomy with cardiopulmonary bypass is an effective treatment strategy for
- Massive PE patients
- Submassive PE with RV dysfunction when contraindications preclude thrombolysis.
- Acute PE patients who require surgical excision of a right atrial thrombus or paradoxical embolism.

Class IIa1.Depending on local expertise, either catheter embolectomy and fragmentation or surgical embolectomy is reasonable for patients with massive PE and contraindications to fibrinolysis(Level of Evidence: C). 2.Catheter embolectomy and fragmentation or surgical embolectomy is reasonable for patients with massive PE who remain unstable after receiving fibrinolysis (Level of Evidence: C). 3.For patients with massive PE who cannot receive fibrinolysis or who remain unstable after fibrinolysis, it is reasonable to consider transfer to an institution experienced in either catheter embolectomy or surgical embolectomy if these procedures are not available locally and safe transfer can be achieved (Level of Evidence: C) |
