Y1 - 2015 N1 - T2 - Color Atlas and Synopsis of Vascular Diseases AB - A 36-year-old previously healthy man presents with a swollen and painful right calf 1 week after returning from a trip to Europe. On examination, the affected calf is tender, slightly warm, and swollen. A venous duplex ultrasound documents acute occlusive deep venous thrombosis (DVT) involving the posterior tibial, popliteal, and femoral veins. The common femoral vein is patent. The patient has no history of bleeding problems. In order to reduce the lifelong risk of the post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), percutaneous endovenous intervention is undertaken.
