title: Pulmonary oedema during pulmonary embolism.
abstract: Pulmonary oedema during angiographically proved massive pulmonary embolism without left ventricular failure is unusual. A few previous reports have used haemodynamic data obtained during the acute phase to rule out left ventricular failure. The following case, which we were able to observe for a period of 4 years has given further evidence of uninvolved left ventricular function.
