Abstract
Strategy of the managements of patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are mentioned. Thrombolysis or thrombectomy were selected according to the patients condition after heparinization. Thrombectomy should be considered as an option of acute phase management of DVT to prevent late severe sequelae. Post-thrombotic venous stasis syndrome was noted in patients who were follow-up without any special interventions. Inferior vena caval (IVC) filters were implanted in the patients with DVT for the prophylaxis against pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT patients with floating thrombus and with invasive pelvic malignancy were included to the indication of IVC filter implantation in our series. Temporary IVC filter, pulmonary thromboen-darterectomy for chronic pulmonary embolism and upper extremity vein thrombosis are also discussed as the topics in the venous obstructive diseases.
