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.
Objective To explore the value of color Doppler ultrasonography and plasma D-dimer in diagnosis of lower limb deep venous thrombosis (DVT).Methods The clinical data of 70 cases of patients with lower limb DVT diagnosed clinically were retrospectively studied. The lower limb venous of each patient was examined by color Doppler ultrasonography and the plasma level of D-dimer were measured, furthermore the plasma levels of D-dimer in different phase and different type of thrombosis were compared. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of plasma D-dimer and ultrasonography examination in lower limb DVT were 100%, 66.7%, 97.0%, 100%, and 97.1%, and 98.4%, 83.3%, 98.4%, 83.3%, and 97.1%, respectively. The plasma D-dimer in acute phase 〔(6 451±4 012.22) μg/L〕 and subacute phase 〔(2 063±1831.35) μg/L〕 of lower limb venous thrombosis were significantly higher than that in normal control group 〔(310±66.70) μg/L〕, Plt;0.01 and Plt;0.05, which was not different from that in chronic phase 〔(466±350.52) μg/L〕. Meanwhile, the plasma D-dimer in mixed limb venous thrombosis group 〔(4 464±3 753.16) μg/L〕 and central limb venous thrombosis group 〔(2 149±1 911.53) μg/L〕 were significantly higher than that in control group (Plt;0.05 and Plt;0.01), which was not different from that in peripheral limb venous thrombosis group 〔(560±315.62) μg/L〕. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography is an optimal method and the plasma D-dimer is a predictive index in diagnosis of lower limb DVT.
ObjectiveTo investigate the significance of catheter thrombolysis combined with one-stage iliac vein percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (or stent implantation) in the treatment of acute left lower extremity deep venous thrombosis secondary to Cockett syndrome.MethodsForty-one cases of Cockett syndrome complicated with acute left lower extremity deep vein thrombosis were retrospectively analyzed and summarized in our hospital from January 2016 to June 2019. Catheter directed thrombolysis was performed under the protection of filter, and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or stent implantation was performed in the first stage of the iliac vein stenosis or occlusion after thrombolysis. Compared the circumference of upper and lower legs of 15 cm above and below patella of the healthy and affected limbs, before and after treatment, and analyzed the venous patency rate.ResultsThe average time of using thrombolytic catheter were (7±3) days, and the average dosage of urokinase was (358.32±69.38) ×104 U. A total of thirty-five Bard stents were implanted (35 cases), four cases underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, and two cases gave up treatment. Before and after treatment, the circumference difference of the higher leg, the circumference difference of the lower leg, and the venous patency were significantly different before and after thrombolysis (P<0.01). The venous patency rate was 58%–75% in this group, and the average venous patency rate was (61±10)%. There was no severe bleeding complication occurred. Thirty-five patients were followed up for 3–26 months, the preservation rate of the valve was 82.86% (29/35), and the first patency rate of iliac vein was 100% (39/39). During the follow-up period, thrombosis recurred in one case of untreated iliac vein, and acute thrombosis in the right side of one case was caused by long iliac vein stent entering the inferior vena cava. No pulmonary embolism was found.ConclusionOn the basis of catheter thrombolysis, one stage removal of iliac vein obstruction in the treatment of acute left lower extremity deep venous thrombosis can relieve the clinical symptoms, reduce the recurrence rate of thrombosis, and reduce the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis syndrome after catheter thrombolysis.
Objective To analyze inducing factors and clinical characteristics of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and to explore clinical value of soluble cell surface differentiation antigen 40 ligand (sCD40L) in early diagnosis of DVT. Methods The patients with the DVT of lower extremity who had not received the anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapy in the Nanchong Central Hospital from January 2012 to January 2017 were collected, these patients were divided into an early-acute stage, mid-acute stage, late-acute stage, and subacute stage according to the clinical course of DVT. The sCD40L expression in the peripheral blood of DVT patients were detected by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Results There were 100 patients with the DVT were included, including 31 cases of early-acute stage, 26 cases of mid-acute stage, 21 cases of late-acute stage, and 22 cases of subacute stage; 66 patients with the peripheral type, 28 patients with the central type, and 6 patients with the mixed type. ① The fracture, malignant tumor, long time in the bed following the thoracic or abdominal operation, joint replacement, and caesarean section were the successively main risk factors of the DVT. ② The early-acute stage of DVT was more common in the fracture patients, the mid- and late-acute stage of DVT often occurred in the joint replacement sufferer, and the subacute stage of DVT was usually found in the malignant tumor patients. ③ The sCD40L expression in the patients with the different stage DVT was signifiantly higher than that in the control group (20 healthy people in the physical examination, P<0.05). Furthermore, there was a significant difference in the different stage DVT patients (F=26.57, P=0.02), that is, the expression of sCD40L was the highest in the early-acute stage of DVT, and then gradually reduced (P<0.05). ④ The sCD40L expression had a significant difference among the central type DVT, mixed type DVT, and peripheral type DVT (F=12.51, P=0.02), which in the peripheral type DVT was significantly higher than that of the central type DVT (P<0.05) and mixed type DVT (P<0.05), but had no difference between the central type DVT and the mixed type DVT (P>0.05). ConclusionsCD40L might act as a blood index of early diagnosis and judgement of extent of DVT, especially be helpful in early-acute stage of 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.
ObjectiveTo compare the differences of incidence rate and severity of postthrombotic syndrome (PTS) of patients with lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) treated by catherter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) or via peripheral vein thrombolysis (PVT).MethodsThe patients with unilateral lower extremity DVT who had received anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapy in the Nanchong Central Hospital from January 2012 to January 2015 were collected. These patients were divided into CDT group and PVT group according to the different thrombolysis methods, and then the thrombolytic rates, thrombolytic complications, and the incidence rate and severity of PTS of 5-year follow up results were calculated and compared.ResultsA total of 137 cases of DVT were collected, 79 in the CDT group and 58 in the PVT group. There were no significant differences in the gender, age, course of disease, thrombus type, and other baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). The thrombolytic rate of the CDT group was (78.6±16.3)% and PVT group was (27.3±12.1)%, the difference was significant (t=21.14, P<0.001). The rate of thrombolytic complications between the PVT group and CDT group had no statistical significance (32.8% versus 21.5%, χ2=2.18, P=0.134). The 5-year follow up was completed in 116 cases, 74 patients from the CDT group and 42 patients from the PVT group respectively, the result showed that the incidence rate of the PTS in the CDT group was lower than that in the PVT group (35.1% versus 88.1%, χ2=30.28, P<0.001), and theseverity of PTS in the CDT group was milder than that in the PVT group too (Z=16.52,P<0.001).ConclusionFrom the results of this study, CDT is able to increase thrombolytic rate and effectively reduce incidence rate and 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.
