Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A blood clot in the right ventricular outflow tract decreases blood flow into the pulmonary artery. Blood clots that form in the legs or the pelvis (deep vein thromboses) often embolize to the heart or lungs, a condition known as a pulmonary embolism (PE). PEs can be life threatening. Thousands of people die of pulmonary emboli each year in the United States alone. Deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are treated with anticoagulation.
