title: [Coincidence of oral contraceptives and pulmonary embolism?].
abstract: Two clinical cases of intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism in women at the age of 18 and 50 years using combined oral contraceptives are presented. Diagnostic process hasn't revealed any other risk factors of PE development. After treatment the clinical improvement with normalization of overload of right ventricle was observed. In the present analysis we have tried to document a relationship between combined oral contraceptives and pulmonary embolism.
