The indications for the use of thrombolytic agents in massive pulmonary embolism (MPE) remain controversial and it has been suggested that transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) examination, which is able to detect an associated right ventricular dysfunction, may cast light on this question. The goal of this study was to examine the incidence of acute cor pulmonale (ACP) in MPE, diagnosed on the basis of TTE criteria, its clinical implications and its resolution rate.
