A hybrid approach to the surgical treatment of acute pulmonary embolism with a high risk of early death
The paper presents surgical treatment experience using hybrid technologies in 65 patients with acute pulmonary embolism with a high risk of early death and the presence of a floating thrombus in the inferior vena cava system. Thromboembolectomy with simultaneous implantation of a cava filter in the presence of a floating thrombus within the «golden» hour reduces the risk of death and repeated pulmonary embolism in the early postoperative period. A modern approach with the participation of a multidisciplinary team, the presence of a hybrid operating room, which combines high - tech equipment, a highly qualified medical and nursing team, allows one stage to provide a full scope of surgical treatment for patients with pulmonary embolism and save the lives of more than 90% of patients.
