In recent studies outpatient treatment of proximal deep venous thrombosis with low-weight-molecular heparin is shown as safe and effective as the treatment within the hospital. The incidence of recurrent thromboembolism, major bleeding and mortality is ...
Modern diagnostic modalities as well as ongoing improvement of vascular prosthetic material and surgical techniques have stimulated progress in vascular surgery. New discoveries concerning the mechanism of endothelial function, atherosclerosis, ...
Background: Traditionally, patients with acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are treated with strict bed rest for several days to avoid clots from breaking off and causing pulmonary emboli. The purpose of this study is to give a precise estimate of short ...
Diagnosing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism has become definitely easier and more reliable over the past fifteen years, especially thanks the development of lower limbs venous compression ultrasonography and fibrin D-Dimer measurement. These ...
Hintergrund: Das Risiko einer Thrombose der tiefen Beinvenen bei Thrombophlebitis der oberflächlichen Beinvenen ist nicht richtig bekannt. Die Pathomechanismen, Zeitverlauf und Risikofaktoren einer Thrombose der tiefen Beinvenen nach einer oberflächlichen ...
Hintergrund: Ziel der Studie war es, die Inzidenz von tiefen Venenthrombosen (TVT) an der Punktionsstelle nach arteriellen Katheterinterventionen zu untersuchen und zu ermitteln ob es einen Unterschied gibt bei Anwendung von arteriellen Verschlusssystemen ...
Hintergrund: Die tiefe Beinvenenthrombose wird heutzutage meist mit Ultraschall diagnostiziert. In einigen Fällen kann die Diagnose schwierig sein. Die Magnetresonanzangiografie könnte in solchen Fällen eine gute Alternative darstellen. Gadofosveset ist ...
Popliteal vein aneurysm is a rare diagnosis, associated with a 70 % risk of pulmonary embolism, sometimes even with fatal evolution. Surgery dramatically reduces the risk of pulmonary embolism. We report a case of a 66-year-old man with recurrent ...
Kikuchi Fujimoto disease (KFD) is a rare form of lymphadeopathy with systemic symptoms. We present a case of a 31-year-old female farmer who was admitted to the emergency ward because of swelling of the left arm. Upper extremity venous thrombosis due to ...
Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent complication of major orthopaedic surgery; prolonged prophylaxis with anticoagulants is standard of care. However, late manifestation of VTE is common and little is known about the predictors of late ...
Ilio-femoral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has a high rate of long-term morbidity in the form of the postthrombotic syndrome (PTS). Therefore, management of acute thrombosis should not only focus on the prevention of acute complications such as propagation ...
Background: The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare the clinical outcomes of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) plus anticoagulation with anticoagulation alone in patients with lower-extremity proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Patients and ...
Abstract. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major cause of maternal morbidity during pregnancy and the postpartum period. However, because there is a lack of adequate study data, management strategies for pregnancy-associated VTE must be deduced from ...
Abstract. Background: Statins have been reported to help prevent the development and the recurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). We conducted a prospective randomized clinical trial to compare the effects of rosuvastatin plus a low-molecular-weight ...
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: Inflammation is associated with an increased risk of thrombotic events and complete blood count (CBC) is an easily measured test. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of CBC ...
Abstract.Background: We analysed differences in hospitalization rates for venous diseases such as pulmonary embolism (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), sinus vein thrombosis (SVT), portal vein thrombosis (PVT), and ...
