BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to identify whether iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) is a risk factor for left-sided deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in hip fracture patients and the influence IVCS may have on the treatment of DVT. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study was carried out among 424 hip fracture patients admitted to our hospital from 2011 to 2016. Clinical data were anal...

In deep vein thrombosis (DVT), the composition of thrombus transforms over time, becoming more resistant to anticoagulation and thrombolytic treatment. A patient's clinical symptoms are often used estimate help determine effective However, DVT can be asymptomatic for days weeks. Using data from CLOUT (ClotTriever Outcomes) Registry, a study evaluating real-world patient outcomes after treatment...

Few studies have investigated the possible influence of the anatomic location of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) on the evolution of the disease. Using a database of a randomized trial involving 400 patients with proximal DVT, we performed multivariate analyses to identify independent predictors of DVT recurrence and cancer discovery within two years. Besides known cancer at inclusion, the upper lim...

Thromb Haemost 2008; 100: 369–370 Upper extremity deep-vein thrombosis (UE-DVT) usually refers to thrombosis of the axillary or subclavian veins. Thrombosis may develop spontaneously, as a complication of a central venous catheter (CVC) or in cancer. Historically, UE-DVT was regarded a self-limiting and rather benign disease. However, data from prospective cohort studies and registries demonstr...

The influence of weather on deep venous thrombosis (DVT) incidence remains controversial. We aimed to characterize the temporal association between DVT and meteorological variables including atmospheric pressure. Data relating to hospital admissions with DVT in Scotland were collected retrospectively for a 20 year period for which corresponding meteorological recordings were available. Weather ...

Summary. Examination and treatment of 274 patients with acute deep vein thrombosis the lower limbs (DVT) was carried out. Thrombolytic therapy (TLT) as a basic method used in 98 (35.8 %) patients. Of these, 44 (16.1 underwent catheter-guided thrombolysis 54 (19.7 systemic thrombolytic therapy. Anticoagulant (ACT) 176 (64.2 In distant period, positive results TLT significantly exceeded ACT. Thus...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In contrast to the extensive documentation on the short-term outcome of patients with acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremities, little is known about the long-term clinical course of this disease. To determine the clinical course of patients with a first episode of symptomatic DVTn over an 8-year follow-up period. The primary aims were to assess the lon...
