Pulmonary embolism in a patient with "isolated syncope", a diagnostic challenge.
Acute Medicine 2015
Syncope is a recognized presenting symptom in patients with pulmonary embolism (PE), and is more common in older patients and following a large embolus.

We present a case which illustrates the importance of consideration of pulmonary embolism in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with syncope, and the value of echocardiography in its diagnosis.
