Objective: To study the etiopathogenetic and clinical features of inpatients with venous thrombosis.
Material And Methods: The analysis of 25 medical cases of patients with venous thrombosis was performed.
Results: Cerebral venous thrombosis most often developed in females (88%), the average age was 36 years. The most frequent localization of thrombosis was observed in the transverse sinus, as independently (40%) and in combination with thrombosis of other sinuses. Headache was the main clinical sign that could be a single feature or accompanied by other neurological symptoms. In 13 patients (86.6%), multiple polymorphisms in blood coagulation genes (more than 4 mutations) were identified. All patients were prescribed anticoagulant therapy. In all cases, there were positive dynamics of the patients' condition, in the form of a decrease in the intensity of headache or complete regression of cephalalgia, neurological symptoms regressed in 20 patients (80%), there was no fatal outcome.
Conclusion: If central venous thrombosis is detected, especially in young people, an analysis for genetic polymorphism of the blood coagulation system and the folate cycle should be carried out. This will allow timely development of secondary prevention and reduce the risk of recurrent thrombosis.

Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) represents a significant postoperative complication after artificial femoral head replacement, with the incidence increasing proportionally with patient age. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of early postoperative use of intermittent pneumatic compression devices (IPC), followed by the combined use of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) after 48 hours, for the prevention of postoperative lower limb DVT in elderly patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. The retrospective study included 100 elderly patients who underwent unilateral femoral head replacement.

Background: Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) leads to portal hypertension (PH) with its sequelae. Computed tomography spleno-mesenterico-portography (CT-SMPG) combines sequential CT spleno-portography and CT mesenterico-portography. CT-SMPG comprehensively illustrates the venous hemodynamic changes due to PH.

Improved efficacy has been shown for amivantamab and amivantamab-based combination therapies in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) compared to established treatment options in clinical trials. However, a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) was observed in patients treated with amivantamab-based therapies, with considerable differences in VTE risk according to the line of systemic treatment, concomitant treatment with lazertinib, and intravenous vs. subcutaneous amivantamab administration.

: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors with unique biological characteristics and complications, including thromboembolism. This systematic review evaluates the incidence, types, and clinical outcomes of venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) in NEN patients. : A systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, and Embase was conducted to identify studies on TEs in NENs.

Background: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cause of stroke, constituting 0.5-3% of all strokes with an extremely varied spectrum of presentation, predisposing factors, neuroimaging findings, and eventual outcomes. A high index of suspicion is needed because timely diagnosis can significantly alter the natural course of the disease, reduce acute complications, and improve long-term outcomes.
