ARTICLES Life-threatening pulmonary emboli and cor pulmonale: treatment with percutaneous pulmonary artery stent placement ZJ Haskal, MC Soulen, EA Huettl, HI Palevsky and C Cope Department of Radiology, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104. Large, central bilateral pulmonary emboli led to cor pulmonale and severe hypoxemia in a patient who had recently undergone cardiac surgery. After percutaneous catheter fragmentation and thrombolysis of the emboli failed, the left and right interlobal pulmonary arteries were recanalized by placement of self-expanding Wallstent endoprostheses through the clots.

ARTICLES Early diagnosis of cor pulmonale with MR imaging of the right ventricle PM Pattynama, LN Willems, AH Smit, EE van der Wall and A de Roos Department of Diagnostic Radiology, University Hospital Leiden, The Netherlands. Right ventricular (RV) wall volumes, chamber volumes, and RV ejection fractions were assessed by means of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in 17 patients with moderate chronic obstructive lung disease and in 11 healthy subjects. Short-axis spin-echo or gradient-echo images encompassing the entire right ventricle were obtained. The mean RV wall mass in patients was

PNEUMOLOGY Management of Both Stable and Unstable Acute Pulmonary Embolism The management of patients with acute pulmonary embolism is difficult, but a rational approach is possible. A constant awareness of the potencial for sudden death long-term morbidity must be a guiding light for physicians whenever the condition is suspected. Cor pulmonale can occur acutely as a result of a single large embolus or chronically from the cumulative effect of multiple small emboli. Most patients with massive pulmonary embolism and hemodynamic compromise from acute cor pulmonale die before they are able to obtain medical care. Even when an initial pulmonary embolism is not massive, it has the potential for further embolization, which creates a life-threatening situation for the patient. In addition, a small pulmonary embolism that does not cause acute hypoxemia or overt hemodynamic instability still has the potential to produce long-term morbidity. Each clot that is trapped in the pulmonary circulation raises pulmonary vascular resistance in direct relation to the amount of pulmonary blood flow it impedes. The goals of therapy in this case are: (1) to prevent the formation of new thrombus, (2) to prevent further embolization of preformed thrombus, and (3) to reduce or prevent long-term morbidity associated with pulmonary vascular occlusion and cor pulmonale. Small asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic pulmonary emboli are very common, and it makes sense to think that part of the lung's purpose is to act as a filter for small thrombi that otherwise would pass into the arterial circulation. Unfortunately, it is impossible to predict which patients with so- called stable pulmonary embolism will subsequently have massive embolus and acute cor pulmonale.

Prevention Cor pulmonale Definition: Failure of the right side of the heart caused by prolonged high blood pressure in the pulmonary artery and right ventricle of the heart. Alternative Names: Right-sided heart failure - cor pulmonale Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Normally, the left side of the heart produces a higher level of blood pressure in order to pump blood to the body; the right side pumps blood through the lungs under much lower pressure. Any condition that leads to prolonged high blood pressure in the arteries or veins of the lungs (called pulmonary hypertension ) will be poorly tolerated by the right ventricle of the heart. When this right ventricle fails or is unable to properly pump against these abnormally high pressures, this is called cor pulmonale. Almost any chronic lung disease or condition causing prolonged low blood oxygen can lead to cor pulmonale. A few of these causes include:
