Deep Vein Thrombosis

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This latest volume in the Practical Phlebology series provides trainee and practicing physicians with the ideal illustrative guide to the etiology, diagnosis, and management of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Based on peer-reviewed literature and quality clinical trials, the book is also an essential resource for academicians. Topics include epidemiology, DVT prophylaxis, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options such as anticoagulation, thrombus removal, catheter-based interventions, and thrombolysis. The book also explores inferior vena cava filters, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, and common femoral endovenectomy and endoluminal recanalization for patients with the most severe postthrombotic syndrome.
