Background: Venous thrombosis (VT) after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer is an important complication, potentially leading to pulmonary embolism. However, there are few available information about the risk for the postsurgical VT.
Methods: This study included 271 patients who underwent esophagectomy for esophageal cancer between 2006 and 2019. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) was performed for all patients on the seventh postoperative day to survey complications, including VT.
Results: VT was radiologically visualized in 48 patients (17.7%), 8 of whom (16.7%) had pulmonary embolism. The thrombus disappeared in 42 patients, the thrombus size was unchanged in 5 patients, and 1 patient died. Multivariate analysis was performed on factors clinically considered to have a significant influence on thrombus formation. The analysis showed that CVC insertion via the femoral vein (odds ratio, 7.67; 95% CI, 2.64-22.27; P < 0.001), retrosternal reconstruction route (odds ratio, 3.94; 95% CI, 1.90-8.17; P < 0.001) and intraoperative fluid balance < 5 ml/kg/hr (odds ratio, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.17-0.85; P = 0.019) were independently related to VT.
Conclusions: Intraoperative fluid balance < 5 ml/kg/hr, along with CVC insertion via the femoral vein and retrosternal reconstruction may be potential risk factors for VT after esophagectomy.

Purpose: To evaluate access site adverse events following ClotTriever-mediated large-bore mechanical thrombectomy via small upper extremity deep veins (< 6-mm).
Materials And Methods: Twenty patients, including 24 upper extremity venous access sites, underwent ClotTriever-mediated large-bore thrombectomy of the upper extremity and thoracic central veins for symptomatic deep vein obstruction unresponsive to anticoagulation. Patients without follow-up venous duplex examinations (n = 3) were excluded.

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), encompassing deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a significant burden on health and economic systems worldwide. Improved VTE management calls for the integration of biomarkers into diagnostic algorithms and scoring systems for risk assessment, possible complications, and mortality. This literature review discusses novel biomarkers with potential diagnostic and prognostic value in personalized VTE management.

Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCOR) is an emerging technique designed to reduce carbon dioxide (CO) levels in venous blood while enabling lung-protective ventilation or alleviating the work of breathing. Unlike high-flow extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), ECCOR operates at lower blood flows (0.4-1.

Vitamin D (VD) is a vital lipophilic secosteroid hormone known for its essential role in maintaining skeletal health and regulating calcium and phosphate metabolism. Recent evidence has begun to illuminate its significance beyond bone health, particularly in relation to thrombosis-a condition characterized by blood clot formation within the vascular system that can lead to serious cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. VD deficiency, defined as a plasma 25-hydroxyVD level below 25 nmol/L, affects a substantial portion of the global population, with prevalence rates ranging from 8% to 18%.

Splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), which is particularly prevalent in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), has a multifactorial pathomechanism involving the anticoagulant protein C (PC) pathway. To better characterize the hypercoagulable state in SVT we assessed its key enzymes thrombin and activated PC (APC). The study population included 73 patients with SVT, thereof 36 MPN+, confirmed by bone marrow biopsy, 37 MPN-, and 30 healthy controls.
