Pulmonary Thromboembolism explained | Dr. Pradeep Haranahalli - Manipal Hospitals, Whitefield

Pulmonary Thromboembolism consists of clogging or blockage of one of the arteries in the lung due to a blood clot. These blood clots do not form in the lung but in the legs and then it gets dislodged and migrates through the bloodstream into the heart and then to the lungs.
