Early experience with the FlowTriever thrombectomy system to treat pulmonary embolism
To the Editor, Catheter-directed therapy is indicated in high-risk patients (PE-HR) to treat pulmonary embolism (PE) when systemic thrombolysis is contraindicated or has failed (indication IIA, C).

Histopathological features of aspirated thrombi after primary percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Plaque disruption with superimposed thrombus is the predominant mechanism responsible for the onset of acute coronary syndromes. Studies have shown that plaque disruption and thrombotic occlusion are frequently separated in time.

Thrombus Aspiration in Hyperglycemic Patients With High Inflammation Levels in Coronary Thrombus
The carefully conducted study by Jolly et al. [(1)][1] reports that in patients with high thrombus burden, routine thrombus aspiration (TA) did not improve outcomes at 1 year. Nevertheless, the authors outlined that high thrombus burden is still an important predictor of outcome in ST ...
