ObjectiveTo discuss the implantation and conversion technology of convertible inferior vena cava filter and the experience of management.MethodsThe clinical data of 115 patients with convertible inferior vena cava filter implantation admitted to our vascular surgery center from January 2018 to December 2018 was retrospectively analyzed.ResultsAmong the 115 patients with convertible inferior vena cava filter implantation, 74 were males and 41 were females. The ages ranged from 22 to 87 years, with median age 54 years. The successful rate of filter implantation was 100% without any surgical related complications. After implantation surgery, patients were followed up from 4 to 455 days with a median of 90 days and the recurrence rate of adverse events was 7.8% (9/115). The recurrence time were 16 to 104 days after conversion, with a median of 42 days. Twenty-three patients (20.0%) received filter conversion, one of them failed and all the others succeeded. The technical successful rate was 95.7% (22/23). The conversion operative time was 22.8 to 51.4 min, with median time 27.4 min. The intervals between implantation and conversion were from 4 to 455 days, with median time 159 days. Accessory techniques were used in 20 of 22 successful filter conversions and the application rate of accessory technique was 90.9%. The patients were followed-up from 30 to 180 days after conversion with a median time of 90 days and no adverse event was reported.ConclusionConvertible inferior vena cava filter is a significant choice for patients application of inferior vena cava filter due to its high safety of conversion surgery, technical success rate and possibility of conversion after long-term indwelling.

Objective To explore clinical effect and safety of rivaroxaban in treatment of acute pulmonary thromboembolism at moderate risk with deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs. Methods The clinical data of 60 patients with acute pulmonary thromboembolism at moderate risk with deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs, collected from January 2010 to March 2017 in Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital, were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different treatment, these patients were randomly divided into a rivaroxaban group and a control group (traditional warfarin anticoagulation), with 30 patients in each group. The clinical effect and safety were compared between two groups on the 10th day, 20th day and 30th day after treatment. Results Compared with the control group, maximum short axis diameter, ratio of right and left ventricles, systolic pulmonary artery pressure, and main pulmonary artery diameter measured by CTPA and echocardiography in the rivaroxaban group were not significantly different on the 10th day, 20th day and 30th day after treatment. However, the intragroup differences were statistically significant at different timepoint (P<0.05). Levels of N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide of two groups after treatment were significantly reduced on the 10th day, 20th day and 30th day after treatment, and the values of PO2 were significantly increased on the 10th day and 20th day after treatment (P<0.05), but no significant differences were found in the values of PO2 on 20th day and 30th day after treatment. D-dimer in the two groups was obviously increased on the 10th day after treatment but significantly declined on the 20th day and 30th day after treatment (all P<0.05). These changes were predominant in the rivaroxaban group. Conclusion Rivaroxaban is effective and safe for acute pulmonary thromboembolism at moderate risk with deep vein thrombosis of lower limbs, and worthy of clinical implementation and application.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of clinical application of determination of lower venous pressure in the diagnosis and treatment of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). MethodsThe 90 patients with DVT of unilateral lower limb who were admitted by using color Doppler or deep veins of lower limb angiography in our hospital during the period of 2013 July to 2014 June were selected and as the research object (case group), 37 cases were male, 53 cases were female; the age was 18-84 years old, mean age was 59.48 years old. According to the development of disease, 90 cases were divided into acute 30 cases, subacute 30 cases, and chronic 30 cases; and according to the pathological types were divided into the central type in 30 cases, 30 cases of peripheral type, and 30 cases of mixed type. At the same time the without lower extremity DVT volunteers of 20 cases were selected as normal control group, including male 9 cases, female 11 cases; age was 21-65 years old, average age was 38.7 years old. The static venous pressure (P0), dynamic venous pressure (P00), and decreased pressure ratio (Pd) of double lower limbs of participants in 2 groups were determinated and comparative analyzed. ResultsThe P0 and P00 of patients with different development of disease and pathological types of the case group were higher than those of the normal control group (P < 0.01), and the Pd was lower than that of the normal control group (P < 0.01). In case group, the P0 and P00 of acute phase were higher than those of the normal control group (P < 0.01), the P0 of central type was higher than that of the peripheral type and mixed type (P < 0.01), and the Pd central type was lower than that of mixed type (P < 0.01). The above 3 indexes' differences of double lower limbs in the normal control group had no statistical significance (P > 0.01). In case group, the P0 and P00 of ipsilateral limb in different development of disease and pathological types were higher than those of the healthy limb, and the Pd were lower than that of the healthy limb (P < 0.01). ConclusionsLower extremity venous pressure measurements can be used in clinical detection for early lower limb DVT, and can be used as the objective index of clinical evaluation curative effect for the treatment of DVT. It is a simple and practical clinical detection method.
ObjectiveTo summarize the experience of treating lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) after repair of inguinal hernia. MethodThe clinical data of 1 812 patients who underwent herniorrhaphy from January 2002 to December 2012 were reviewed, and we analyzed such data as age, gender, and the formation of DVT. ResultsFive of them suffered from DVT (0.28%), including 2 cases involving both lower extremities, 1 right and 2 left extremity. All of them were discharged from hospital by anticoagulant therapy and there was no pulmonary embolism and death case. DVT recovered well in 4 cases half a year after being discharged from the hospital. One had a sequela of recurrent swelling of the left lower extremity. ConclusionsReasonable precautions and treatment against DVT are very important even though DVT rate after inguinal hernia repair is low.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluated the efficacy of AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy and catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in the treatment of acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT).MethodsAccording to the retrieval strategy of Cochrane collaboration network, the relevant literatures in CNKI, WangFang, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science at home and abroad up to March 25, 2020 were collected, and the meta analysis was performed by using Review Manager 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 20 observational studies were included in the meta analysis. The total number of patients was 1 566, which 799 cases in the AngioJet group and 767 cases in the CDT group. The results showed that the AngioJet group had a higher patency rate of deep vein ［MD=11.34, 95%CI (6.16, 16.51), P<0.000 1］, lower or shorter Villalta score ［MD=–1.90, 95%CI (–2.71, –1.10), P<0.000 01］, incidence of post-thrombotic syndrome［PTS, OR=0.42, 95%CI (0.23, 0.77), P=0.005］, rate of clot reduction grade Ⅰ events ［OR=0.40, 95%CI (0.24, 0.67), P=0.000 5］, incidence of bleeding complication ［OR=0.32, 95%CI (0.21, 0.49), P<0.000 01］, and hospital stay ［MD=–2.96, 95%CI (–3.69, –2.22), P<0.000 01］.ConclusionsIn the early efficacy, AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy has better patency rate of deep vein and thrombolysis, shorter hospital stay, and lower risk of bleeding than CDT. In the mid-term effect, AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy could reduce the incidence and the severity of PTS.
Objective To analyze the relation between the mode of delivery and postpartum lower extremity deep venous thrombosis （DVT）， and discuss the therapy methods. Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with postpartum lower extremity DVT from 2006 to 2012 in this hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 15 897 patients with the delivery， of whom were 10 097 cases of cesarean section and 5 800 cases of spontaneous delivery， the incidence rate of lower extremity DVT in the patients with cesarean section was significantly higher than that in the patients with spontaneous delivery〔0.41% （41/10 097） versus 0.12% （7/5 800）， χ2=9.94，P＜0.005〕. The higher incidence rate of cesarean section， the higher incidence rate of lower extremity DVT， which was a positive correlation between them （rs=0.87，P＜0.05）. Forty-three cases were only treated by drug therapy， 2 cases were performed operation combined with drug therapy， and 5 cases were placed the inferior vena cava filter. Forty-eight cases were cured and discharged. Conclusions The incidence rate of lower extremity DVT of cesarean section is higher as compared with the spontaneous delivery. The thrombolysis and （or） anticoagulation therapy is an effective way in the treatment for DVT. Controlling indications of cesarean section and early postpartum out-of-bed can decrease the DVT.
Objective To summarize the clinical manifestation and the causes of lower limb deep venous thrombosis （DVT） complicated with pulmonary embolism （PE）. Method The clinical data of 45 cases of PE confirmed by CTPA from May 2009 to May 2012 in this hospital were summarized retrospectively. Results Five patients with PE had no obvious clinical manifestation， 9 patients （20.0%） had chest stuffiness and short of breath， 8 patients （17.8%） had cough. In the causes of thrombosis defluxion：11 patients （24.4%） had early mobilization after operation， 9 patients （20.0%） had functional exercise after operation， 7 patients （15.6%） had turn over or defecate on bed， 2 patients （4.4%） had sneeze， 14 patients （31.1%） had no definite causes. Conclusions Patients with lower limb DVT have high risk of thrombosis defluxion， although adequate anticoagulation. Early mobilization， functional exercise， and transient increased abdominal pressure are easy to lead to thrombosis defluxion， so lead to PE. Absence of the protection of inferior vena cava filter， patient should be required for bed ridden in order to avoid the thrombosis defluxion.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of comprehensive prophylaxis for deep venous thrombosis(DVT) after proximal femur fractures in geriatric patients. Methods From July 2003 to May 2006, 157 geriatric patients with proximal femur fractures treated with operation were divided into prophylaxis group and control group randomly. There were 82 patients (34 males, 48 females, aged 65-97 years) in prophylaxis group, 30 with femoral neck fracture and 52 with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. There were 75 patients (33 males, 42 females, aged 65-94 years) in control group, 28 with femoral neck fracture and 47 with intertrochanteric fracture of femur. In the prophylaxis group, comprehensive prophylaxis for DVT which included Aspirin, fibrinolytic enzyme, passive and active circumduction of the foot and ankle, CPM management wasappl ied. In the control group, no thromboproxylaxis was taken. All patients in the both groups received color doppler flow imaging (CDFI) examination before operation and on the 7th and 14th days after operation. Results CDFI found 2 cases of DVT in the prophylaxis group 7 and 14 days after operation respectively, while 21 and 15 cases of DVT in the control group respectively. The incidence of DVT was 48.0% in the control group compared with 4.9% in the prophylaxis group and the reduction was significant (P lt; 0.01). One patient gave up the intervention due to Melena 3 days after operation in the prophylaxis group. In the control group, 1 patient died 8 days after operation and another died 11 days after operation. Both died of acute pulmonary embol ism confirmed by autopsy. Conclusion The comprehensive prophylaxis can significantly decrease the incidence of DVT in geriatric patients after proximal femur fractures. There is no significant adverse effect during the intervention.
Objective To investigate the short-term result of catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) in treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in lower extremity. Methods A total of 289 cases of acute DVT in lower extremity who got treatment in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Group Suqian City People’s Hospital and Xuzhou Central Hospital from March 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled prospectively, and of them, 125 cases of system thrombolysis (ST) group underwent ST, 164 cases of CDT group underwent inferior vena cava filter placement (IVCF)+CDT. Clinical effect was compared between the 2 groups. Results Clinical symptoms of all cases were obviously relieved, and limb swelling was significantly reduced. Of the CDT group, 73 cases presented iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS), and 43 cases of them underwent the percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stent implantation. In CDT group, there was 1 case complicated by catheter displacement, 10 cases suffered from puncture site ecchymosis, 3 cases suffered from hematuria. In ST group, there was 1 case suffered from pulmonary embolism (PE), 14 cases suffered from bleeding gums, 22 cases suffered from hematuria, 3 cases suffered from skin and mucosa petechia, and 2 cases suffered from melena (didn’t need transfusion). The morbidity of ST group was higher than that of CDT group (P=0.002). There were 18 cases suffered from recurrence in ST group, 15 cases suffered from recurrence in CDT group, but there was no significant difference in the recurrence rate between the 2 groups (P=0.786). In addition, the dosage of urokinase, thrombolysis time, blood vessel patency score, thigh circumference after treatment, and calf circumference after treatment in ST group were all higher than those of CDT group (P<0.050), but the Villalta score in ST group was lower than that of CDT group (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in hospital stay (P=0.383). Conclusion For acute DVT in lower extremity, CDT has a superior short-term outcome with safety and feasibility.
