[PULMONARY THROMBOEMBOLISM IN WOMEN USING ORAL HORMONAL CONTRACEPTIVES]
Abstract
Pulmonay thromboembolism is a common difficult-to-diagnose pathology not infrequently with a lethal outcome. There are many factors leading to hypercoagulation. One of them is intake of hormonal contraceptives to which doctors sometimes do not pay due attention. This paper reports two cases of acute coagulopathy with massive pulmonary thromboembolism in young women using these agents during a long period.
