    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paget–Schroetter_disease

    Paget–Schroetter disease (which evolved from a venous thoracic outlet syndrome) is a form of upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a medical condition in which blood clots form in the deep veins of the arms. These DVTs typically occur in the axillary and/or subclavian veins. [1]

  4. Deep vein thrombosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_vein_thrombosis

    After treatment with catheter-directed thrombolysis, blood flow in the axillary and subclavian vein were significantly improved. Afterwards, a first rib resection allowed decompression. This reduces the risk of recurrent DVT and other sequelae from thoracic outlet compression. [147]

  5. Thrombosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombosis

    Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is the formation of a blood clot within a deep vein. It most commonly affects leg veins, such as the femoral vein. [citation needed] Three factors are important in the formation of a blood clot within a deep vein—these are: [citation needed] the rate of blood flow, the thickness of the blood and; qualities of the ...

  6. Venous thrombosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venous_thrombosis

    Since the veins return blood to the heart, if a piece of a blood clot formed in a vein breaks off it can be transported to the right side of the heart, and from there into the lungs. A piece of thrombus that is transported in this way is an embolus : the process of forming a thrombus that becomes embolic is called a thromboembolism .

  7. Vascular bypass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_bypass

    In the legs, bypass grafting is used to treat peripheral vascular disease, acute limb ischemia, aneurysms and trauma.While there are many anatomical arrangements for vascular bypass grafts in the lower extremities depending on the location of the disease, the principle is the same: to restore blood flow to an area without normal flow.

  8. Spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_osteonecrosis...

    Localised tenderness over the medial knee is the most common finding of the condition. It is usually happening on one side, without a previous history of trauma. SONK should be considered together with differential diagnosis of osteoarthritis, tear of medial meniscus, and tibial plateau fracture. SONK usually has a sudden onset of knee pain ...

  9. Thrombosis prevention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrombosis_prevention

    If a blood clot has already formed in the deep veins of the leg, early movement out of bed is usually prescribed, except in some severe cases of deep vein thrombosis or in people who have phlegmasia cerulea dolens. The treatment to prevent blood with physical intervention (e.g., sequential compression device) is contraindicated. [citation needed]
