Nonthrombotic pulmonary embolism (NTPE) challenges the medical community with its diverse etiologies and potential life-threatening implications. The classification section delves into the multifaceted nature of NTPE, which includes various embolic agents that traverse the vascular system. From air and fat emboli to tumor and amniotic fluid emboli, this exploration of diverse etiologies sheds light on the complexity of NTPE. Diagnostic methods play a crucial role in the effective management of NTPE. This article describes a range of traditional and cutting-edge diagnostic techniques, from computed tomography angiography to novel biomarkers, enabling the accurate and timely identification of NTPE. NTPE treatment options are diverse and patient-specific, requiring customized approaches to address varying embolic sources. Anticoagulation, embolus removal, and emerging interventions under study are discussed, providing clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of management strategies. This article uncovers the rare but captivating association between NTPE and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although rare, documented cases have sparked curiosity among researchers and medical practitioners. We explore potential pathophysiological connections, discussing challenges and considerations when encountering this unique scenario. In conclusion, this captivating review encapsulates the multifaceted realm of NTPE, covering its classification, diagnostics, and treatment modalities. Moreover, it presents a fascinating connection with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This article offers a comprehensive and concise review of NTPE, guiding readers through its intricate classification, diagnostic approaches, and therapeutic interventions.
