Pulmonary embolism is a common but vexing illness. This book
provides a contemporary overview of the most important issues from
a Western and a Japanese perspective, providing the reader with
state-of-the-art knowledge of the epidemiology and molecular
biology of the disease. In the Diagnosis section, the relationship
between venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism is explored, and
exciting new findings are presented in the fields of
echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. The Management
section focuses on surgical intervention with acute embolectomy as
well as updating thromboendarterectomy for chronic pulmonary
embolism. The importance of primary and secondary prevention is
emphasized in chapters addressing low molecular weight heparin and
the inferior vena cava filter. This cutting-edge book is a valuable
resource for practicing physicians, researchers, and students in
internal medicine, hematology, pulmonary critical care, and
vascular medicine.
