Abstract

The aim of surgical treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis is to prevent lethal pulmonary emboli, the venous desobstruction and the maintenance of the valvular mechanism. From 1972 to 1982, 161 patients have been operated at the surgical clinic of Cologne. In 41.4% of the cases the long term result was excellent. The clinical examination, the complaints of the patients, the phlebography were judgement criteria.

Immune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia resulting from preceding exposure to heparin catheter flushes.

Immune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a life-threatening adverse effect of heparin. It can result from any type of heparin exposure and by any route of administration; however only a few cases are reported after exposures to small quantities of heparin from catheter flushes. The major clinical problem associated with HIT is thrombosis. Early detection and institution of alternative, non-heparin anticoagulation are important. We report a patient with HIT associated with use of therapeutic-dose unfractionated heparin in whom immune sensitization to heparin was triggered by two 500-unit exposure to UFH associated with intravascular catheter flushing for antineoplastic chemotherapy in a patient with colon adenocarcinoma.
