Hintergrund: Abschätzung von Einflüssen und Risikoindikatoren von Venenthrombosen in den unteren Extremitäten.
Patienten und Methoden: In dieser prospektiven, populationsbezogenen fünfjährigen Follow-up-Studie der Geburtenjahrgänge 1929, 1939 sowie 1949 ...
We describe the case of a young woman who developed fatal pulmonary embolism during thrombolytic therapy of a deep pelvic and leg vein thrombosis, despite the insertion of a temporary vena cava filter. So the opinion that the insertion of inferior vena ...
Background: Activated protein C (APC) resistance and factor V Leiden mutation are major risk factors for deep venous thrombosis. Previous work has led to the view that the coagulation phenotype and the genetic defect are associated in almost all patients. ...
Background: Compression ultrasound is considered the preferred test for the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis of the leg (DVT). Since sensitivity for distal thrombosis is low additional tests are required. We developed a protocol of complete compression ...
Background: Incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) after thoracotomy has not been widely studied. DVT is a frequent complication in major surgery involving abdominal and pelvic areas and lower extremities. The aim of the present study was to evaluate ...
Hintergrund: Eine Agenesie, vollständige oder teilweise der Vena cava inferior mit entsprechendem kollateralem Fluss wird als Azygoskontinuation bezeichnet. In der Literatur fehlen Langzeitverläufe von Patienten mit einer Azygoskontinuation und ...
We report two cases of femoral vein thrombosis after arterial PTA and subsequent pressure stasis. We discuss the legal consequences of these complications for information policies. Because venous thrombembolism following an arterial PTA might cause ...
Background: Patients admitted to hospital for surgery or acute medical illnesses have a high risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Today’s widespread use of low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) for VTE prophylaxis is supposed to have reduced VTE rates ...
Background: We evaluated the diagnostic yield of multidetector-row CT angiography and determined the clot burden within pulmonary vasculature as a measure of pulmonary embolism (PE) severity at different d-dimer levels and pretest clinical probabilities.

Die oberflächliche Thrombophlebitis (TP) erscheint in zwei Formen: Das häufigste Bild entspricht einer Thrombose in einer Varize. Eine bescheidene Entzündung betrifft die Umgebung, nicht die Gefäßwand. Seltener erfasst die TP eine nicht-variköse Vene, ...
Background: The aim of the study was to assess the regression rate of persistent echogenic masses in patients with idiopathic deep venous thrombosis (DVT) who were after initial 6 months randomized to long-term anticoagulation treatment or to ...
Hintergrund: Um mögliche Sicherheitsrisiken identifizieren zu können, überprüften wir die Risikostratifizierung und die Akzeptanz unseres unternehmensweiten Protokolls zur Prophylaxe venöser Thrombembolien. Patienten und Methoden: Audit bei 464 ...
Background: The role of varicose veins (VV) as a risk factor for development of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is still controversial. The aim of this study in primary care was to determine the impact of varicosity as a potential risk factor for developing ...
Abstract. Background: Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has many beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system. However, whether localized lower extremity IPC could be protective against the thrombogenic activity generated by lower extremity ischemia is ...
Abstract. Background: Here, we update an earlier systematic review on the preventive efficacy of active compression stockings in patients with diagnosed proximal deep venous thrombosis (DVT) by including the results of recently published trials. The aims ...
Abstract. Background: We investigated the association of the 5A/6A polymorphism in the promoter region at -1612 of the matrix metalloproteinase-3 gene (MMP-3-1612) and deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Patients, materials and methods: The distribution of the ...
Abstract. We report a case of extensive early postpartum acute suprarenal inferior vena cava thrombosis in a 14-year-old girl. Management included catheter-directed-thrombolysis, aiming to save renal function and ...
Summary:Background: Two standardized methods to detect venous reflux, the Valsalva manoeuvre (VM) and the cuff deflation method (CM) are compared. Patients and methods: We included 72 patients with varicose veins (VV) and 106 patients ...
Anticoagulation in Venous Thromboembolism: How Long and Which Dose?Abstract. Venous thromboembolism is quite common in daily practice. As soon as the diagnosis is confirmed, anticoagulation should be started ...
