1、Teachingwardround -Pulmonary embolismGeneralcondition The patient is female.She is 41 years old.ChiefcomplaintPresented with persistent left chest pain for 8 days.PresentHistory Eight days ago,the patients presented with persistent left chest pain,but no incident cause or other complaints.The chest

2、pain was more severe when the patient took a deep breath.So she went to another hospital.A CT scan showed scattered small ground-glass opacities in the bilateral lung field and a well defined dense shadow in the left lung.Chest ultrasound confirmed left pleural effusion.The patient was diagnosed wit

8、 was alleviated;however,a similar but more severe pain appeared in the right chest.Further clinical assessments showed the patients D-dimer level was 0.08mg/L,and chest CT scan revealed right pleural effusion had emerged.For further diagnosis and treatment,a CTPA was performed.Findings were consiste

10、ction 4100 IU was administered twice daily by subcutaneous injection.Chest pain was fully alleviated after 6 days,and oral anticoagulant rivaroxaban was given after discharge.Three months later,a lung perfusion scan showed the PE in the right pulmonary artery had significantly improved,and ultrasoun

11、d showed no evidence of pleural effusion.Discussion Clinical manifestations of PE are complex and diverse,and the rates of clinical misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis are high.Globally,PE is associated with mortality,with 30%of PE patients dying during the initial 30 days after diagnosis.As correct m

12、anagement of PE can reduce the mortality rate to 10%,timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment of PE are essential.In the current study,the patient initially presented with left chest pain;she was diagnosed with double lung pneumonia and left pleural effusion.Pleural effusion may be caused by hear

13、t failure,pneumonia,cancer,and tuberculosis.In the current study,based on the patients clinical manifestations,the chest pain was initially thought to result from parapneumonic effusion.However,administration of anti-inflammatory treatment only slightly reduced the left chest pain.New pain appeared

14、in the right chest,which did not support a diagnosis of parapneumonic effusion;therefore,we considered occult PE.In the current study,the patients D-dimer level was not remarkable.Generally,there is a dose-response relation between D-dimer level and risk for a PE.However,a PE diagnosis should not be

15、 made based on D-dimer levels alone as the test lacks specificity.If D-dimer levels are within the normal range,a diagnosis of PE can almost be excluded if the patients clinical probability score for a PE is low.In patients with high D-dimer levels and a high clinical probability of PE,further tests

16、 should be used to make a definitive diagnosis.In clinical practice,PE can be easily missed or misdiagnosed based on a normal D-dimer level.We recommend the use of CTPA to investigate the possible presence of occult PE in patients with unexplained pleural effusion and normal D-dimer levels.Thank you
