Day #181 - Pulmonary Embolism

Today was a case of pulmonary embolism in a patient with advanced malignancy.

We didn't really talk about PE -- but the discussant talked about very relevant issues including end of life care, diagnostic reasoning and clinical decision making.

For your information, I have previously blogged about DVT/PE here and thrombophilia here.

Addendum: NEJM article from Jan 2009 on PE.
