The article deals with the results of examination and treatment of 70 patients presenting with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The incidence of haematogenic thrombophilia in the examined patients amounted to 25.7%. The patients with haematogenic thrombophilia were found to have thromboses and embolisms in the cava filter more often than patients with unknown-aetiology pulmonary embolism. It was proved that differentiated therapy for haematogenic thrombophilia can significantly reduce the risk of recurrent thrombotic episodes in patients with acute pulmonary embolism.
