We report the case of a 50-year-old HIV-positive woman with a congenital cyanotic heart disease who developed left axillary, subclavian, and brachiocephalic vein thrombosis and left lower aortopulmonary collateral arterial thrombosis, presenting as left hemibody swelling. We also briefly overview the literature regarding upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT). Given the absence of other r...

Skin necrosis is a rare complication of warfarin therapy that occurs between the third and 10th days of treatment. The pathogenesis of warfarin-induced skin necrosis is attributable to the emergence of a transient hypercoagulable state. The condition most commonly involves skin areas with abundant subcutaneous adipose tissue such as the breasts, buttocks, abdomen, thighs, and the extremities. W...

Pregnancy induces complex changes concerned with hemostasis. Normal pregnancy is associated with hypercoagulable state which becomes more pronounced at term while in pre-eclampsia or pregnancyinduced hypertension (PIH), localized coagulation fibrinolytic imbalance has been reported(l,2). Various coagulation factors are decreased in concentration in PIH, especially fibrinogen, factor V, VII, VII...

Introduction: Physicians who care for trauma patients should be aware of the possibility of a pulmonary embolism presenting immediately after traumatic injury. Case Report: We report a case of a 30­year­old female restrained driver who developed a pulmonary embolism within two hours of a motor vehicle accident. Conclusion: We conclude that trauma can produce a hypercoagulable state that can occ...

Inflammatory bowel disease is characterized by a chronic inflammatory state and is therefore associated with abnormalities in coagulation and a hypercoagulable state. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is a rare complication of inflammatory bowel disease yet contributes significant morbidity and mortality to those affected. Early diagnosis is critical, as a delay in diagnosis portends a worse pro...

Our case report aims to present a rare interesting on osteonecrosis associated with COVID-19 infection. We retrospectively evaluated this after the patient underwent surgical management. In our patient, AVN was found be developed secondary Infection coronavirus confers hypercoagulable state leading various systemic complications. So, we suggest proper studies should done understand physiopathol...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of extract of Panax quinquefolius and Corydalis tuber (EPC) on platelet activation and the hypercoagulable state in rats with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The MI model in Wistar rats was induced by coronary artery ligation. Sham surgery was performed as a control. The surviving rats that underwent MI surgery were divided into con...

STUDY OBJECTIVES Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are at increased risk for coronary artery and cerebrovascular diseases. Numerous studies suggest that a hypercoagulable state is prospectively related to atherothrombotic events. This review explores whether changes in hemostasis may constitute one biological link between OSA and vascular disease. DESIGN Ten studies on hemostatic va...

Context There are contradictory results on the effect of hyperthyroidism on hemostasis. Inadequate population-based studies limited their clinical implications, mainly on the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The present review focuses on hemostatic changes in overt and subclinical hyperthyroidism. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted employing MEDLINE database. The follow...

Q. What conditions comprise ocular thrombosis? CJG Ocular thrombosis includes central and branch retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), amaurosis fugax (AF), and non-­arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), all of which are closely related to coagulation abnormalities. In the United States, branch and central retinal rein occlusions are the second most comm...
