Residual vein obstruction in patients diagnosed with acute isolated distal deep vein thrombosis associated with active cancer.

2018

After acute proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) the thrombotic mass decreases, especially during the first months of anticoagulation. The persistence of residual vein obstruction (RVO) may predict future recurrence in patients with cancer-associated DVT. We aimed to evaluate the proportion of patients with RVO after an episode of cancer associated isolated distal DVT (IDDVT), to identify variables associated with RVO, and to provide initial evidence of its association with recurrent VTE. We performed a post-hoc analysis of a multicenter cohort study of patients with isolated cancer-associated acute IDDVT. We included patients who underwent a control ultrasonography at the end of the anticoa…

Survival and recurrent venous thromboembolism in patients with first proximal or isolated distal deep vein thrombosis and no pulmonary embolism

2017

Essentials The long-term risk of recurrence and death after distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is uncertain. We included subjects with first proximal or isolated distal DVT (IDDVT) and no pulmonary embolism. The risk of symptomatic and asymptomatic recurrence is lower after IDDVT (vs. proximal). IDDVT may be associated with a lower long-term risk of death, especially after unprovoked DVT. SummaryBackground A few studies have focused on the risk of recurrence after first acute isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) compared with proximal DVT (PDVT), whereas the incremental risk of death has never been explored beyond the first 3 years after acute event. Methods Our single-center cohort …

Clinical course of isolated distal deep vein thrombosis in patients with active cancer: a multicenter cohort study

2017

Essentials Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) is frequently associated with cancer. No study has specifically evaluated the long-term clinical course of cancer-associated IDDVT. Patients with cancer-associated IDDVT are at very high risk of symptomatic recurrence and death. We observed low rates of major bleeding during anticoagulation. SummaryBackground Although isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) is frequently associated with cancer, no study has specifically evaluated the long-term clinical course of IDDVT in this setting. Aim To provide data on the rate of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE), major bleeding events and death in IDDVT patients with active cancer. Pat…

OC-01 - Clinical history of cancer patients with isolated distal deep vein thrombosis: a multicenter cohort study

2016

Introduction Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) accounts for one-fourth to one-half of all deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the leg. Patients with IDDVT are frequently treated for a shorter period of time compared to patients with proximal DVT and/or pulmonary embolism (PE) due to a perceived lower risk of recurrence. About 10-20% of patients with venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) have concomitant cancer. Guidelines recommend long-term anticoagulant treatment in this group of patients due to their high risk of VTE recurrence. Unfortunately, information on the clinical history of IDDVT patients is limited and, to date, no study has evaluated the long-term risk of VTE recurrence in I…
