[Thrombosis of the cerebral veins in gynecological practice].

The review presents literature data on the risk factors of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), a rare life threatening disorder. Currently, the diagnosis of CVT is made more often due to the possibility of using neuroimaging methods of cerebral structures. Pregnancy, postpartum period, use of oral contraceptives are risk factors of CVT.

[Pathogenesis and prevention of thromboembolic complications in obstetric practice].

The study was designed to analyse risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE), elucidate the role of genetic forms of thrombophilia and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) in pathogenesis of VTE during pregnancy. 38 pregnant patients with VTE (group I) and 35 healthy pregnant women (group 2, controls) were screened for genetic thrombophilia and antiphospholipid antibodies (APA). Deep vein and ovarian vein thrombosis was diagnosed in 21 and 1 patients of group 1 respectively.
