title: [Interventional radiology treatment of extensive pulmonary embolism and thromboembolic diseases].
abstract: The authors discuss interventional radiological methods in the field of vascular interventions applied in venous system diseases. Venous diseases can be life threatening without appropriate treatment and can lead to chronic venous diseases and venous insufficiency with long-term reduction in the quality of life. In addition, recurrent clinical symptoms require additional treatments. Interventional radiology has several methods that can provide fast and complete recovery if applied in time. The authors summarize these methods hoping that they will be available for a wide range of patients through the establishment of Interventional Radiological Centres and will be a part of the daily routine of patient care. Regarding the frequency of venous diseases and its influance on life quality the authors would like to draw attention to interventional radiological techniques and modern therapeutic possibilities.
