In this phenomenon, a thrombus forms within the lumen of the stent graft component of the frozen elephant trunk prosthesis and puts the patient at risk for downstream embolization with visceral or lower limb ischemia. Therefore, the presence of ILT is associated with increased short-term mortality and morbidity.

Baseline data were analyzed using univariate analysis, and potential independent risk factors associated with PE were further identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Participants were randomly divided into a training group (70%) and a validation group (30%).

Genetic protein S (PS) deficiency caused by PROS1 gene mutation is an important risk factor for hereditary thrombophilia.Case introductionIn this case, we report a 28-year-old male patient who developed a severe pulmonary embolism during his visit. Ultrasound showed no thrombosis in the veins of both lower limbs.

Inferior vena cava (IVC) agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly that has been implicated in up to 5% of unprovoked deep vein thrombosis (DVT) cases in young men under 30 years old. A hypercoagulability workup was positive for a heterozygous Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation, an additional thrombophilic risk factor.

MINOCA may be due to: coronary spasm, coronary microvascular dysfunction, plaque disruption, spontaneous coronary thrombosis/emboli , and coronary dissection; myocardial disorders, including myocarditis, takotsubo cardiomyopathy, and other cardiomyopathies. This is in spite of the known proclivity of tighter stenoses to thrombose.

However, it subjects patients to lifelong warfarin therapy after MHVR, with the attendant risk of bleeding and thrombosis. The percentage of time in the therapeutic range (TTR) was used as the primary outcome while bleeding, thrombosis, and other events were the secondary outcomes.Results:A total of 721 patients were enrolled.

The commonest causes of MINOCA include: atherosclerotic causes such as plaque rupture or erosion with spontaneous thrombolysis, and non-atherosclerotic causes such as coronary vasospasm (sometimes called variant angina or Prinzmetal's angina), coronary embolism or thrombosis, possibly microvascular dysfunction.
