Venous thrombophilia is the result of clotting changes namely of a hypercoagulable state together with blood flow and vessel wall changes. There is no need for all these components to be present in order for thrombosis to occur. As the matter of fact, thrombosis may occur even if only one of these conditions is present. In clinical practice a combination of factors is usualy seen. In comparison...

One of the rare reasons for acute testicular pain is spermatic vein thrombosis. In literature, right side much less involved than left side. We report a case common symptom with clinical feature. A 28-year-old man presented and swelling. Ultrasonography (US) showed focal venous thrombus at level internal ring. The symptoms were resolved after anti-inflammatory therapy, but thrombosis was not. D...

The incidence of bilateral deep venous thrombosis in patients with single limb or bilateral symptoms was determined using duplex scan examination. In a prospective study, 157 inpatients with clinical suspicion of deep venous thrombosis underwent duplex scan evaluation of the lower extremities. Demographic characteristics, physical examination data, and risk factor information were collected. In...

Thrombosis due to hypercoagulable state is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
 Increased D-dimer levels are marker the presence risk thrombosis. In this report, we present that a 59-yearold
 male patient developed thrombosis distal radial arteries despite normal level. The was treated with
 enoxaparin, iloprost infusion, cilostaz...

Deep vein thrombosis is a common disease among Caucasians but is rare in Asia. Venous thrombosis may be fatal, for example by a pulmonary embolism and right or left atrial thrombosis. Alternatively, deep vein thrombosis may follow a benign pattern such as femoral and popliteal vein thrombosis. Theories abound regarding the causes of deep vein thrombosis, with the most common theories being long...

During the past decade, the role of inflammation in the pathophysiology of arterial thrombosis has been elucidated. However, comparatively little is known about the relationship between inflammation and venous thrombosis. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review of clinical studies that have examined the association between inflammation and venous thrombosis, specifically: (1) t...

In this review, we provide an overview of the risk factors for venous thromboembolism, focusing on hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolysis. In the first part of this review, we discuss the risk factors for commonly occurring venous thrombosis, in particular deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. In the second part, we provide an overview of the risk factors for the Budd-Chiari syndrome an...

To refine 1974 results on venous thrombosis and oral contraceptives (OCs) from a prospective study begun in 1968 comparing 23,000 women using OCs with 23,000 controls, women with known preexisting conditions relevant to thrombosis were excluded. Rates in each contraceptive category (users, ex-users, and controls) were indirectly standardized for age, parity, cigarette consumption, and social c...

Thrombosis, or complications from thrombosis, currently occupies the top three positions in the cardiovascular causes of morbidity and mortality in the developed world. There are a limited number of safe and effective drugs to prevent and treat thrombosis. Animal models of thrombosis are necessary to better understand the complex components and interactions involved in the formation of a clot. ...

This study determined the prevalence of inherited factor V Leiden mutation in a group of 128 thrombosis patients (102 with venous thrombosis and 26 with arterial thrombosis) attending a hospital in Sousse, Tunisia, and a control group of 100 with no history of thrombosis. Using an allele-specific PCR amplification technique, factor V Leiden was found in significantly more patients (20.3%) than ...
