Multifactorial Neonatal Thrombosis in Inferior Vena Cava Dislodged to the Right Atrium: A Case Report
Authors
Abstract:
Background: Neonatal thrombotic diseases can cause mortality or serious morbidity and disability.Case report: In this report, we present a case of neonatal inferior vena cava thromboembolism with several underlyingfactors. Hereditary thrombophilia and genetic mutation in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and MTHFR A1298C genesin conjunction with cleft palate resulted in poor lactation and hypernatremic dehydration. A peripherally insertedcentral catheter in the inferior vena cava was an additional underlying factor. Thrombosis mass was dislodged to theright atrium while asymptomatic and accidentally detected during routine echocardiography.Conclusion: Surgical thrombectomy was done successfully, and the mass was removed from the right atrium.

Abdominal tuberculosis and thrombosis of inferior vena cava: a case report
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient disease. At the present, about 9 million people are suffering from the disease, and about 3 million people die due to TB and its complications. Abdominal or Gastrointestinal tract TB is the sixth most frequent site of extrapulmonary involvement. Diagnosis of abdominal TB is very difficult since it appears with multiple symptoms. In this study, we de...

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...

A 47-year-old woman presented with shortness of breath and edema of lower limbs for 3 months. Echocardiography showed an iso-echoic lesion in the right atrium and IVC (Fig. 1a), while CT revealed an intensely enhanced mass in the region above (Fig. 1b and c). Debulking was successfully completed and histo-pathologic diagnosis is consistent with angiofibroma (Fig. 1d). Figure 1: (a) Transthoraci...

Background: Ewing's sarcoma/Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is a group of tumors with small round cells that originate from nerve stem cells. They are generally more common in children and often occur in the soft or bony tissues of the limbs, trunk, head, and neck. Ewing's sarcoma is a rare disease in the kidney and its tumor thrombosis into Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) is assumed as a very ...
