Disseminated intravascular coagulation: Clinical and laboratory aspects

Neuroradiologic aspects of cerebral disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Six patients with neurovascular disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) illustrate the diversity of neuroradiologic changes in that condition. Emphasis is placed on the involvement of large cerebral vessels, especially as reflected by cerebral vein or sinus occlusions. The latter occurred in four of the six cases reported; deep or superficial veins, larger lobar draining veins such as the ...

DIC is subclassified into overt DIC and non-overt DIC. The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) and the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine (JAAM) published the diagnostic c...
