Delayed lower extremity deep venous thrombosis after operation for osteofibrous dysplasia of the left femur: report of one case / 浙江大学学报·医学版

ABSTRACT

Lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LDVT) is one of the most common complications in orthopedic surgery, and it often occurs in the first 24 h after operation. We report a case of delayed LDVT, which occurred on d 16 after operation for osteofibrous dysplasia on the left femur. Upon the diagnosis confirmed, thrombolysis and anticoagulation therapy was conducted. The symptoms disappeared 3 weeks later and lower limb vascular ultrasound examination showed no remnant thrombosis.
