Abstract
Transthoracic echocardiography showed no significant abnormalities suggestive of PE in 71% of patients with PE, while in approximately 10%, transthoracic echocardiography revealed incidental findings. The coexistence of an enlarged hypokinetic right ventricle with the McConnell sign together with the 60/60 sign seems to be the most useful echocardiographic criterion for RVD.
