Abstract

Catheter-based therapies such as catheter-direceted thrombolysis, ultrasound-assisted thrombolysis, and mechanical embolectomy are emerging as alternatives for intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism, offering targeted treatment with reduced bleeding risk. Early studies show promising outcomes but evidence remains limited. Ongoing randomized trials, including HI-PEITHO and PEERLESS II, aim to clarify efficacy and safety. Until results are available, treatment should be guided by individual risk assessment, local expertise, and centre capabilities, as argued in this review.
