Long-term incidence of death due to thromboembolic disease among patients with unprovoked pulmonary embolism
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 08/04/09
White RH et al. – The incidence of death due to recurrent pulmonary embolism or significantly debilitating or fatal thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in the first 3 years after anticoagulant treatment is discontinued is approximately 1–3%. In patients in whom the risk of fatal or disabling hemorrhage is lower, the benefits of chronic anticoagulation may outweigh the risks.
