The authors explore the pathophysiology of PE-induced right ventricular failure, emphasizing the mechanisms by which PE contributes to dysfunction, current diagnostic tools for risk stratification, and the importance of timely diagnosis. The primary focus is on strategies for managing right ventricular failure secondary to PE, including medical, percutaneous interventional, and surgical options.

Symptoms range from pruritus and hives to severe systemic reactions like anaphylaxis, and typically occur 3 to 8 hours after eating meat.
