Traumatic iliac venous injury is rare but can be fatal. Although surgical management considered a primary treatment method, urgent required when deep thrombosis and subsequent phlegmasia cerulea dolens combined. It difficult to treat by management, pharmaceutic thrombolysis cannot applied due the trauma history. Here, we describe case of unilateral traumatic diffuse in affected iliofemoral infr...

Ulceration of the legs and gangrene of the feet, common disorders encountered in surgical clinics, are major medical and economic problems since knowledge of their cause is lacking, treatment is highly unsatisfactory, and prevention is impossible. These conditions have been assigned descriptive names based on fairly wellknown natural courses. The ulcers are called "post-phlebitic,"38 39 sometim...

GANGRENE and eyanosis of an extremity, due to thrombophlebitis with massive venous occlusions, is an uncommon condition and is often confused with primary arterial oeclusive disease. With massive venous occlusion and the associated arterial venospasm the blood flow may be so impeded to an extremity that cyanosis and eventually gangrene may occur. The recognition of this is important, since this...

Many questions remain unanswered regarding RNAi-based mechanisms and dsRNA-induced antiviral immune responses in penaeid shrimp. In this study, we report the characterization in the white leg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei of RNAi pathway associated proteins Lv-Ago 1 and Lv-Ago 2, two members of the Argonaute family of proteins, as well as Lv-sid 1, the first shrimp homologue of Sid-1, a membrane ...

We describe a case of phlegmasia cerulea dolens secondary to venous thrombosis due to compression of inferior vena cava, in a 31-year-old man with a germ cell tumour. He was treated with systemic thrombolytic agents, intravenous heparin and urgent chemotherapy He presented a complete tumoral response and complete revascularization of the vena cava and right femoral vein.
