Obesity is assumed to be a risk factor in the occurrence of thrombophlebitis. We studied 168 consecutive patients retrospectively; 33 were men and 135 women, with an average age of 34 (range 27 to 41) years. All patients had a gastric bypass because of obesity, with a minimum of 100 lb over normal
Acute superficial thrombophlebitis of the lower extremities is one of the most common vascular diseases affecting the population. Although it is generally considered as a benign disease, it can be extended to the deep venous system and pulmonary embolism. We examined 50 patients (22 males and 28
There were 140 patients with morbid obesity operated on for postoperative abdominal hernia. In 2 (1.4%) patients an acute cardiopulmonary insufficiency occurred, and in another 2 (1.4%) an acute thrombophlebitis of the lower extremities veins. Two patients died. The hernia recurrence have occurred
Obesity-related metabolic and functional disorders may disturb adaptation process taking place in pregnant women body. Insufficient adaptation may lead to development of several medical complications during pregnancy, labor, delivery, and puerperium. Maternal obesity is associated with increased
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of different treatment plans (compression only, early surgery, low-dose subcutaneous heparin [LDSH], low-molecular-weight heparin [LMWH], and oral anticoagulant [OC] treatment) in the management of superficial thrombophlebitis (STP), by
The 27-year-old pregnant woman has been overweight since her childhood. Endocrinological assessments did not confirm hormonal disease. Her pregnancy was without complication. A signs of intrauterine distress were observed and elective caesarean section was performed under heparin protection because
Maternal obesity (defined as prepregnancy maternal BMI> or = 30 kg/m2) is a risk factor strongly associated with serious perinatal complications and its prevalence has increased rapidly in a general population during the last decades. Therefore, following international approach to regulate perinatal
We examined 182 patients (257 knees) who had had a total knee arthroplasty two to five six years earlier. The patients were grouped into five weight classes. Eighteen patients (twenty-seven knees) were considered moderately obese and twelve patients (twenty-seven knees), severely obese. The results
In three morbidly obese patients (mean weight 169 kg), severe hip pain developed immediately after gastroplasty. The differential diagnosis included thrombophlebitis, osteoarthritis and lumbar disc protrusion. The pattern of pain and associated numbness was characteristic of compression of the
BACKGROUND
Some patients may have deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and superficial thrombophlebitis (ST) of the lower limbs at the same time.
OBJECTIVE
To analyze the frequency of risk factors for thrombosis (RF), other than thrombophilias, in patients with concomitant DVT and ST.
METHODS
Clinical
OBJECTIVE
To determine the association of body mass index (BMI) on complications, recurrence, and survival in GOG LAP2, a randomized comparison of laparoscopic versus open staging in clinically early stage uterine cancer (EC).
METHODS
An ancillary data analysis of GOG LAP2 was performed. Categorical
Maternal pregravid obesity is a significant risk factor for adverse outcomes during pregnancy. In early pregnancy there is an increased risk of spontaneous abortion and congenital anomalies. In later gestation maternal metabolic manifestations of the metabolic syndrome, such as gestational
A young woman was admitted to hospital with suspected pyelonephritis. Due to prolonged fever, further investigations were done and showed a thrombosis in her femoral vein; X-ray and lung scintigraphy revealed a pulmonary embolism. Blood tests showed lymphocytosis, and a primary cytamegalovirus (CMV)
OBJECTIVE
to investigate criteria for selection of patients for radiofrequency ablation (RFA), as well as to assess the immediate and remote outcomes of comprehensive minimally invasive treatment of patients presenting with class C2-C6 chronic venous disease (CVD).
METHODS
we performed a total of
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between fine gradations in body mass index (BMI) and risk of hospitalisation for different types of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
METHODS
The 45 and Up Study is a large-scale Australian cohort study initiated in 2006. Self-reported data from 158 546
