BACKGROUND Venous thrombosis is a common disease with a high mortality rate shortly after the event. However, details on long-term mortality in these patients are lacking. The aim of this study was to determine long-term mortality in a large cohort of patients with venous thrombosis. METHODS AND FINDINGS 4,947 patients from the Multiple Environmental and Genetic Assessment study of risk facto...

OBJECTIVE Between July 1992 and December 1994, 16 French hospital centres, mainly cardiological, participated in a non-controlled observational study on venous thromboembolic disease. The objective of this survey was to collect data concerning the current status of pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis. PATIENTS During this period, 547 patients were included: 446 with deep venous thro...

We report a case of extensive venous thrombosis of the upper extremity in a patient with a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS). Thrombosis of the upper extremities is generally found in 4% of cases with deep venous thrombosis. Extensive, symptomatic venous thrombosis of the upper extremity, as seen in this patient, is rare except with catheter-related thrombosis. Recent studies have supporte...

High factor VIII is the risk for venous thrombosis and coronary artery disease. Here we are presenting a case of disease with high Factor VIII. Thrombophilia screening does not include By this study come to conclusion that one should be considered as test patients thrombosis.

Introduction: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was first detected in December 2019 the city of Wuhan, China, and has since taken on worldwide proportions. It is known that individuals with Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) have systemic clinical manifestations. Among multisystemic effects, cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) responsible for high mortality rates. In this...

BACKGROUND The risk of deep venous thrombosis is increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. We tested the hypothesis that increased concentrations of rheumatoid factor are associated with increased risk of deep venous thrombosis in individuals without autoimmune rheumatic disease in the general population. METHODS We included 54628 participants from the Copenhagen City Heart Study (1981...

Background—Heart diseases increase the risk of arterial embolism; whether they increase the risk of pulmonary embolism without peripheral venous thrombosis is less certain. Methods and Results—We conducted a nationwide, population-based case-control study in Denmark using patients diagnosed with pulmonary embolism and/or deep venous thrombosis between 1980 and 2007. We computed odds ratios to e...

Venous thromboembolism in pregnancy is a clinical emergency that has been associated with significant risk for maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. The adaptation of the maternal hemostatic system to pregnancy predisposes women to an increased risk of thromboembolism. A timely diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis is crucial because up to 24% of patients with untreated deep venous thrombos...

The incidence of clinically significant thrombosis in a cancer patient varies from 5 to 60%. Venous thrombosis remainsmore common than arterial thrombosis, and combined arterial and venous thrombosis in cancer patients is rare [1]. We report a rare case of combined pulmonary thromboembolism and complete thrombotic occlusion of the renal artery in a patient with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC...
