Abstract

The problem of phlebothrombosis is an important one, not only because of its local effects, but because of the propensity for portions of the venous clot to berak off and travel back to the heart and into the pulmonary Artery. The result of pulmonary embolism, unfortunately is still as prominent a cause of death today as it was before the advant of modern advances in treatment and prevention. This paper reports a case of thrombosis of left common iliac vein left hypogastric vein and left common femoral vein, who had been bedmidden for two weeks because of left knee joint arthritis. Successfully treated with transabdominal direst venous thrombectomy and anticoagulant heparin. Authors also reviewed the references.
