Short- and long-term outcomes of acute upper extremity arterial thromboembolism.
PURPOSE To evaluate the short-/long-term outcomes after acute thromboembolism of the upper extremity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one patients with acute arterial occlusion in the upper extremity were treated from January 1993 to July 2007 at our hospital. Their average age was 73.0, and 14 (66%) were male. The right and left limbs were affected in 15 cases (71%) and 6 cases (29%), respectiv...

The incidence of deep venous thrombosis in the etiology of pulmonary thromboembolism may be as high as 90%. Doppler ultrasonography of lower extremities is recommended generally to determinate the etiology of pulmonary thromboembolism. The aim of this study is to present the...
متن کاملA case of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia with repeated episodes of acute lower extremity arterial thromboembolism during a short time.
