ABSTRACT

A 44-year-old male with a history of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) with the inferior vena cava (IVC) filter in place and peripheral vascular disease (PVD) status post lower extremity vascular stenting presented from a COVID-19 rehabilitation center with bilateral phlegmasia cerulea dolens and no palpable popliteal or dorsalis pedis pulses, at risk for venous gangrene and loss of limbs. The patient was anticoagulated and taken emergently to the operating room for vascular surgery where thrombolysis with alteplase and mechanical thrombectomy were performed. Bilateral thrombolysis infusion catheters were placed for two days. The patient had a return of arterial signals in the feet and decreasing clot burden. The patient is expected to make a full recovery.
