AbstractThe treatment of massive pulmonary embolus remains controversial. We describe the first report of the successful use of the thrombolytic agent, tenecteplase, in treating a hypotensive elderly patient with a saddle embolus. A brief review of the current literature concerning thrombolysis for massive pulmonary embolus is given.Copyright 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
