Summary:Abstract. We report the use of rheolytic thombectomy in two patients with severe pulmonary embolism. In first case RT was performed as the second step in treatment of pulmonary embolism after systemic thrombolytic therapy. In second case systemic thrombolytic therapy was not performed because of extremely high risk of duodenal ulcer bleeding.
