UNPROVOKED PULMONARY THROMBOEMBOLISM – CASE SERIES

Abstract

Unprovoked pulmonary thromboembolism is a very difcult diagnosis owing to the fact that PTE should be suspected based on clinical presentation and conrmed with CT-pulmonary angiogram, but since unprovoked requires no identiable causes are the required criteria makes it even more difcult to start the treatment on early basis. Here is a case series of unprovoked PTE to make aware the prevalence of the same in the ER and to prompt necessary investigations and signs to diagnosis the condition.
