Catheter-directed thrombolysis reduces the thrombolytic time and dose of thrombolytic drugs without affecting the thrombolytic effect to ensure that bleeding does not occur. This helps clinicians choose safer CDT treatments for their patients. We combine the historical process of catheter-directed thrombolytic therapy for VTE and prospect the future development of CDT.

Objective: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death. The objective of this study was to examine the current management of pulmonary embolism at a single academic institution.
Methods: With institutional review board approval, we conducted a retrospective chart review of 805 encounters among 775 patients presenting with acute PE from January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2019.

Background: The recently published PEERLESS trial compared catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) and catheter-based thrombectomy (CBT) in acute pulmonary embolism (PE). However, it included a low proportion of patients with contraindications to thrombolytic therapy (4.4%), leaving uncertainty about how CDT would perform relative to CBT in a real-world cohort with higher bleeding risk.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third most frequent cause of acute cardiovascular presentation after myocardial infarction and stroke. The treatment approach for PE consists of hemodynamic and respiratory support, anticoagulation, reperfusion treatment, and vena cava filters. Reperfusion treatment consists of systemic thrombolysis (recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator, streptokinase, and urokinase); percutaneous catheter-directed therapy (CDT); and surgical embolectomy.

Background: Endovascular intervention by means of thrombolysis is emerging as a promising management of Acute Aortic Occlusion (AAO). This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of endovascular thrombectomy for AAO cases in a single-center tertiary hospital in Indonesia.
Methods: We review retrospectively AAO patients treated by Rheolytic thrombectomy ± stenting or TEVAR at our referral center from 2011 to 2024.
