Abstract

We analyzed echocardiography data of 69 patients with acute PTE before operation, during short-term and long-term postoperative periods. Local kinesis abnormalities of the right ventricle anterior wall known as a "McConnell sign" were found in 24% of cases (11 patients) with moderate PH and in 62% of cases (13 patients) with significant PH. The PH level tended to significantly decrease in the postoperative period. The dilatation of the right heart departments and pulmonary artery was observed to decrease after the procedure of catheter fragmentation and thrombolysis. The effect of operation remains constant in the long-term period.
