Had a patient the other day, transferred due to "multiple PE's in all lobes". Radiologist said he had never seen such a definitive positive for PE's. Now I know what a PE is, lifestyle and risk factors for one, but I have never had a patient with so many at once and am curious to know if anyone knows a reason for such an occurrence. Bad luck? Something major going on? No prior history in the patient for any medical problems... Either having a major brain fart or just stumped on this one. I feel like there is something more going on with this patient than it seems.
