Description
Nicolas Balbi Caruso, Emily Koe, David Majdalany, and Linda Chambliss report a pregnant patient with an extensive pulmonary embolism treated without clot-removal surgery. Clots in pregnancy are uncommon but life-threatening, and little evidence guides management when the burden is large. The team stresses early detection and an interdisciplinary approach. Because the patient showed no strain on the right side of the heart, blood-thinning medication alone proved sufficient despite the embolus size, sparing mother and fetus an invasive thrombectomy.
