Presentation
However, symptoms of claudication were present only in 1 case and clinical significant legs growth retardation ( 15 mm) was present in 1%. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Noncompliance
A 50-year-old chronically noncompliant woman with a known unresected pheochromocytoma presented to the emergency department with ataxia. Imaging confirmed a right-sided ischemic stroke. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pleural Effusion
In another case, massive ascites, pleural effusion, and variceal changes of the mesenteric veins owing to portal hypertension were identified, and surgical closure of the shunt was performed 152 days after partial portal arterialization. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A 31-year-old woman from Southern India presented with history of fever, left upper quadrant pain and progressive breathing difficulty for 3 weeks. Clinical examination revealed discriminatory features of Cushing's syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Vascular Disease
Author information 1 Department of Vascular Diseases, Ljubljana University Medical Centre, Ljubljana, Slovenia - [email protected] Abstract In the past, arterial and venous thrombosis have been accepted as two completely different diseases. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It's important that you don't wait and do treat these symptoms as an emergency. symptoms of a stroke Peripheral vascular disease If you have a narrowing of an artery in one or both of your legs (peripheral vascular disease) you may: be more susceptible [nhsinform.scot]

Leg Pain
The patient complained of acute leg pain after chemotherapy, and computed tomography revealed multiple thrombi from the thoracic to popliteal arteries. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Episodic Headache
The symptoms and signs of pheochromocytoma include the classic triad of episodic headache, increased sweating, and palpitations. These are as a result of an uncontrolled release of catecholamines. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Ataxia
A 50-year-old chronically noncompliant woman with a known unresected pheochromocytoma presented to the emergency department with ataxia. Imaging confirmed a right-sided ischemic stroke. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Lethargy
She was admitted to the department of pediatric hematology with a severe headache, vomiting, and progressive right flaccid hemiplegia and lethargy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
Hypercoagulability workup was negative. Pathology samples revealed vasculitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients presenting with an incomplete occlusion are usually with systemic anticoagulation and a medical workup investigating the cause of the thrombosis [2]. [ijcasereportsandimages.com]
Autoimmune workup to look for vasculitis is reasonable if this workup is negative. Hypercoagulable workup should be really limited to the ones that cause arterial thrombosis – see below. II. [errolozdalga.com]

Pleural Effusion
In another case, massive ascites, pleural effusion, and variceal changes of the mesenteric veins owing to portal hypertension were identified, and surgical closure of the shunt was performed 152 days after partial portal arterialization. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Warfarin treatment was started in the level of INR 2-2,5. ASA with a dose of 100 mg/day was added to the treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
It is a dreaded complication and has a dismal prognosis if not promptly recognized and treated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis Prognosis is severe in homozygous or compound heterozygous patients. Prognosis is good for heterozygous patients. With adequate treatment and monitoring, the risk of thromboembolic disease is markedly reduced. [orpha.net]
Prognosis The results from stenting procedures on the subclavian artery have documented an 87% patency rate after 3 years. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
In conclusion, this side effect of the use of thalidomide should be taken into consideration while doing examinations with respect to the etiology in arterial thromboembolism and because of this vascular complication that threatens life; we suggest stopping [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology Protein S deficiency is caused by mutations in the PROS1 gene (3q11-q11.2). Diagnostic methods Diagnosis is based on the measurement of protein S antigen levels (total protein S or free protein S) and anticoagulant activity. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology
Epidemiological studies have detected elevated γA/γ' fibrinogen in patients with arterial thrombosis, suggesting that this isoform promotes thrombosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In contrast, clopidogrel did not prevent coronary reocclusion and increased bleeding time. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
