We report about the history of a 53-year-old female who suffered from dyspnea as well as leg and chest pain for six months; in addition she experienced two syncopal events. Recurrent pulmonary embolism was suspected, which was subsequently confirmed by positive scintigraphical findings. Acute cor pulmonale may have caused the syncopes. Therapy with heparin and oral warfarin was started. Within few days the patients condition improved markedly. Signs of pulmonary hypertension disappeared within five months.
