Successful Total Angiographic Pulmonary Embolectomy

Professor Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani has made a groundbreaking advancement in the treatment of pulmonary thromboembolic events through his novel approach to total angiographic management and beating-heart embolectomy. This innovative technique allows for precise intervention in cases of pulmonary embolism without requiring the cessation of the heart’s natural rhythm. Unlike traditional methods, which often involve stopping the heart and using cardiopulmonary bypass, Dr. Zeraatian’s approach keeps the heart beating, thereby minimizing trauma and reducing recovery time for patients. His angiographic management also enables real-time imaging and accurate guidance, leading to safer and more effective clot removal. This approach not only increases the success rate of embolectomy but also decreases the risk of complications associated with pulmonary thromboembolic interventions, marking a significant step forward in cardiac and vascular surgery.
