VTE with pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third leading cause of death after myocardial infarction and stroke. In the first three months after an acute PE, there is an estimated 15% mortality among submassive PE, and 68% mortality in massive PE. Current guidelines suggest fibrinolytic therapy regarding the clinical severity, however some studies suggest a more aggressive treatment approach. This review will summarize the available endovascular treatments and the different techniques with its indications and outcomes. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/es/ info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion (orcid)0000-0002-0113-5121 Guirola, Jose Andres (orcid)0000-0003-3865-0925 Lahuerta, Celia (orcid)0000-0002-8880-6580 Serrano, Carolina Universidad de Zaragoza Figueredo, Ana Kuo, WilliamT. 1010 770 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
