INFERIOR VENA CAVA THROMBOSIS IN A PATIENT WITH ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA
Essential thrombocythemia is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by a sustained proliferation of megakaryocytes, which leads to increased numbers of circulating platelets. Hemorrhagic and/or thrombotic episodes are frequent, and thrombosis of both veins and arteries may develop. Vessels in unusual sites may be involved, e.g., the hepatic veins, mesenteric veins, and the dig...
متن کاملMembranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava.
Membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava (MOVC) is a rare clinical entity. The incidence is higher in Japan and Africa than that in USA and Europe. MOVC is considered to be different from the Budd-Chiari syndrome. There are differences in clinical manifestation and pathologic changes in the liver. Findings of the liver revealed cirrhosis in all patients but in one. Ascites and esophagea...

متن کاملRight atrial inflow obstruction of the inferior vena cava due to atrial septal aneurysm and an elongated Eustachian valve.
We describe a patient with oedema of the legs and ascites due to right atrial (RA) inflow obstruction, caused by atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) and an elongated Eustachian valve (EV). Both structural abnormalities created a narrow inflow channel to the free RA cavity. RA inflow obstruction is usually related to constrictive pericardial disease and pericardial tamponade. Other cardiac causes of RA...
متن کاملThe valve of the inferior vena cava.
The surgical repair of atrial septal defects (Bailey et al., 1953; Gross et al., 1953; Bjork et al., 1954) has led to a greater awareness of the anatomy of the right atrium. In two cases of this condition we have seen an important variant involving the valve of the inferior vena cava. This structure was described by Bartolomeno Eustachius (1563), but its identity was denied by Bauhin (1605) and...
