Incidence of deep venous thrombosis and stratification of risk groups in a university hospital vascular surgery unit
CONCLUSION: The incidence of deep venous thrombosis in vascular surgery patients was 8.5%, which is similar to figures reported in the international literature. Most vascular surgery patients were stratified into the high and very high risk for deep venous thrombosis groups.CONTEXTO: Há lacuna de conhecimento sobre a real incidência de trombose venosa profunda nos pacientes submetidos a procedimentos cirúrgicos vasculares no Brasil. A atual pesquisa pretende corroborar a implementação de um sistema de vigilância e controle sobre a qualidade de profilaxia de tromboembolismo venoso em nosso meio. As investigações, em...

The role of vascular echography in the management of complications associated with central venous access for hemodialysis in cancer patients: two case reports and literature review
Resumo O implante de cateter venoso central para hemodi álise é comumente realizado em grandes centros e suas complicações estão, por vezes, associadas ao treinamento insuficiente de quem o realiza, mas também às condições clínicas do próprio doente. O presente estudo relata dois casos de intercorrências relacionadas ao uso do cateter de curt a permanência para hemodiálise. No primeiro caso, houve inserção inadvertida da cânula na artéria subclávia esquerda e consequente trombose arterial, que foi conduzida conservadoramente, documentando-se uma boa perfusão colateral com ecografia vascular. O segundo c...

Anatomical variations of tibial vessels: differential diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis by vascular ultrasound
CONCLUSION: Although a rare condition, found in only 0.41% of the cases, awareness of posterior vein absence may help to avoid misdiagnoses and false-positive results of DVT in patients with this variation.

The importance of recognizing antiphospholipid syndrome in vascular medicine
Resumo A s índrome antifosfolipíde (SAF) é uma doença autoimune sistêmica caracterizada por trombose arterial ou venosa recorrente e/ou morbidade gestacional e pela presença dos anticorpos antifosfolipídeos, podendo apresentar outras manifestações vasculares, como microangiopatia, arteriopatia crônic a e SAF catastrófica. Determinados testes laboratoriais para a síndrome (por exemplo, o anticoagulante lúpico) podem sofrer interferência do uso de medicações anticoagulantes, dificultando o diagnóstico. A fisiopatologia da SAF é complexa, sendo enumerados no texto diversos mecanismos patogê nicos relacionad...

Incidence of major complication following embolo-sclerotherapy for upper and lower extremity vascular malformations.
CONCLUSIONS: Embolo-sclerotherapy is relatively safe for upper and lower extremity vascular malformations in a high-volume experienced center where our major complication rates were 14.3% and 4.7%, respectively, which compare favorably or similar to those reported in most recent literature. These outcomes will direct treatment strategies to avoid local and systemic toxic complications in the upper and lower extremity, for both HFVM and LFVM, and to improve informed consent.

Two-year follow-up of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds in severe infra-popliteal arterial disease.
CONCLUSIONS: At 24 months, our study found that patients with predominantly advanced infra-popliteal PAD who were treated with Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold reported improved clinical status and a low and durable rate of clinically driven target vessel failure extending out to 24 months.

Aggressive venous thromboembolism prophylaxis reduces VTE events in vascular surgery patients.
CONCLUSIONS: The overall rate of VTE was reduced by 75% after the initiation of a standard protocol for pharmacologic VTE prophylaxis. These findings justify an aggressive approach to VTE prophylaxis in vascular surgery patients. PMID: 26123057 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Post-thrombotic syndrome - a position paper from European Society of Vascular Medicine
Vasa. 2021 Mar 15:1-10. doi: 10.1024/0301-1526/a000946. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a chronic venous insufficiency manifestation following an episode of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT). It is an important and frequent long-term adverse event of proximal DVT affecting 20-50% of patients. This position paper integrates data guiding clinicians in deciding PTS diagnosis, treatment and follow-up.PMID:33720757 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a000946

Vascular graft thrombosis secondary to activated protein C resistance: a case report and literature review.
Abstract Hypercoagulability is a well-documented and prominent risk factor for venous thromboembolism. The role of thrombophilia in arterial thrombotic events is less well defined. A 52-year-old male patient with multiple atherogenic risk factors was admitted for non-healing pedal ulcer and absent distal pulses. Based on the clinical presentation, Doppler ultrasound and angiography findings, the patient underwent elective in situ bypass arterial reconstruction. The saphenous vein graft was of satisfactory quality and the procedure went routinely. Acute graft thrombosis on postoperative day 0 was recognized immedia...

A vascular laboratory protocol for improving and managing after-hours suspected acute deep venous thrombosis.
This study reviews the clinical and workforce impact of a suggested protocol designed for the management of suspected acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients seen after standard vascular laboratory business hours. The protocol included the use of Wells score, D-dimer and a single dose of therapeutic anticoagulant to defer venous duplex ultrasound (VDU) testing until routine business hours unless contraindicated. Information was collected on medical history, physical exam and the timing of any diagnostic studies and treatment provided. Over 15% of studies done after-hours were deemed unnecessary by our protocol and i...

Early Surgical Thrombectomy Improves Hemodialysis Vascular Access Salvage
Hemodialysis vascular access (HVA) salvage after acute thrombosis raises a debate between nephrologists and vascular surgeons regarding the urgency of treatment. To assess the impact of early surgical thrombectomy on the rate of HVA salvage, we offered an early surgical protocol to eligible patients with acute HVA thrombosis.
