We describe the case of a 64-year-old patient with a deep venous thrombosis unusually caused by the obstruction of a severely distended atonic bladder as a result of an iatrogenic injury. Distention of the urinary bladder has previously been described to elevate pressure in the iliac veins, but has seldom been linked to the development of deep venous thrombosis. Through this case, we want to attract attention to this major complication of bladder distention, and we emphasize the importance of proper physical examination.

Acquired factor V inhibitor in a case of pediatric venous thrombosis.
Res Pract Thromb Haemost
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Hematology, Innovative Hematology, Indiana Hemophilia and Thrombosis Center, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA.
Background: The development of acquired factor (F)V with inhibitor (AFVwI) is rare, resulting mainly in bleeding complications, although sporadic cases of thrombosis in adults have been reported.
Key Clinical Question: How do you diagnose and manage a pediatric case of acute deep venous thrombosis associated with the concurrent finding of AFVwI?
Clinical Approach: A 13-year-old female with Crohn's Disease and May-Thurner anatomy developed extensive deep venous thrombosis of the left lower extremity, complicated by the finding of AFVwI, discovered during the evaluation of a prolonged prothrombin time and a low FV activity. Anticoagulation was initiated with low-molecular-weight heparin followed by a direct oral anticoagulant, rivaroxaban, without any complications.
High levels of soluble P-selectin, neutrophil extracellular traps, and myeloperoxidase as risk factor of deep vein thrombosis in malignancy patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy.
F1000Res
January 2025
Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University, Denpasar, Bali, 80113, Indonesia.
Backgrounds: Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) is a disease entity comprising Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE). VTE events increase the mortality rate of patients with cancer receiving platinum-based chemotherapy. Soluble P-Selectin, Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NET), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are risk factors associated with DVT in malignancy patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy.

Department of Joint Surgery, The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, 130,000, Jilin Province, China.
Objectives: Tuberculosis of the hip joint is a common form of bone tuberculosis that can cause severe joint destruction and affect quality of life. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an important way to treat hip joint-related diseases. In recent years, THA has been applied to treat tuberculosis of the hip joint and has achieved certain results.

Department of Vascular Surgery & Interventional Therapy, Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital, College of Clinical Medicine for Obstetrics & Gynecology and Pediatrics, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, China.
Background: Pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism (PA-VTE) seriously threatens maternal health. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, risk factors, treatments, and pregnancy outcomes to better prevent and treat PA-VTE.
Methods: PA-VTE patients were selected from 171,898 women who were registered in the Department of Obstetrics of Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital from January 2014 to August 2023 and delivered to calculate the incidence.
Association between gastroesophageal reflux disease and venous thromboembolism: A Mendelian randomization study.
Medicine (Baltimore)
November 2024
Department of Infectious Diseases, Beijing Luhe Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
The link between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is not well understood. We performed a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study to explore the potential causal effect of GERD on VTE. To explore the causal relationship between genetically predicted GERD and the risk of VTE, including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
