Deskripsi
A 29-year-old male patient was treated and followed up for a pulmonary embolism. The patient had no relevant medical history, other than the fact that he had smoked bonzai, a synthetic cannabinoid derivative, for 2 years. Hypercoagulability tests were normal. The use of synthetic cannabinoids is increasing in the young population and should be kept in mind among the causes of pulmonary embolism.
