Fatemeh Sadat Hosseini Khajouei: Can Repeat Thrombolysis Save Lives in Massive Pulmonary Embolism?
Fatemeh Sadat Hosseini Khajouei, Medical Student at Arak Medical University, shard on LinekdIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in Thrombosis Journal, adding:
”This is not just a publication; it may be one more step toward saving a life!
What should we do when guideline-supported treatment fails, but the patient is still fighting for life?
Our newly published case report describes a patient with massive pulmonary embolism who remained critically ill despite standard thrombolytic therapy.
With no access to catheter-directed therapy or surgical embolectomy, repeat systemic thrombolysis became the rescue strategy; and the patient recovered.
One case cannot change clinical practice, but it can contribute to the evidence that shapes future decisions.
We hope this report adds to the discussion on managing massive pulmonary embolism, particularly in resource-limited settings.
My deepest gratitude to Dr. Amir Hoseini, whose guidance, trust, and unwavering support have meant far more than mentorship.
I’m also sincerely thankful to my co-authors, especially Maede Aghahoseini for her invaluable collaboration throughout this work, and my hardworking colleague, Negar Azami.
Proud to see our work published in BMC Thrombosis Journal.
I would be delighted to hear your thoughts on this challenging clinical scenario.”
