Deep vein thrombosis of the upper extremity (DVT-UE) can occur in any of the veins of the upper extremity or thoracic inlet. These include the jugular, brachiocephalic, subclavian, and axillary ...

Upper-extremity deep vein thrombosis is less common than lower-extremity deep vein thrombosis, and therefore less studied, but outcomes are significantly worse, new research shows.

Treatment options for deep-vein thrombosis of the upper extremity are anticoagulation, thrombolysis (catheter-directed or systemic) and surgery (suction thrombectomy, angioplasty, vein stenting, ...

Venogram in a 45-year-old woman with acute-onset swelling of her left upper extremity, showing deep vein thrombosis involving the subclavian vein (arrow), with extension to the axillary and ...

The case report, published in the journal Viruses, sheds light on how hyperinflammatory states during COVID-19 can lead to upper extremity blood clots, called deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Transcatheter arterialization of the deep veins in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia appeared safe and led to limb salvage and wound healing in most cases, the PROMISE II study showed.

Conclusions Deep vein thrombosis rarely occurs concurrently with lower limb cellulitis. The Wells score substantially overestimates the likelihood of DVT due to an overlap of clinical signs.

Varicosities of the veins of the upper extremity are rare and are usually provoked only by such considerable increases in venous pressure as are the result of arteriovenous fistulas of long ...

Evidence-based recommendations on lower limb deep vein valve reconstruction for chronic deep venous incompetence. This involves restructuring valves in the deep veins of the legs by various surgical ...
