The Perpetual Help Medical Center – Las Piñas had its first ever mechanical thrombectomy for massive pulmonary embolism using the Penumbra System on the Artis Icono.
The patient was attended by our renowned Cardiologist Dr. Maria Victoria Turla, Vascular Medicine Specialist Dr. Emilita Lapuz, Interventional Cardiologist Dr. James Patrick Diaz, Anesthesiologist Dr. Carmelita Lunas, and the Catheterization Laboratory team.
The Penumbra Indigo™ System using our Artis Icono was deployed successfully to remove the massive clot burden.
Congratulations to the team!
