Venous Thromboembolism in Pregnancy and IVC Filter: A Case Report.
Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of India 2022 December
INTRODUCTION: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), composed of pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis, can be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality during pregnancy. Underlying factors like thrombophillias can potentiate this risk many folds. Depending on these risks and peripartum stage, the benefits of thromboprophylaxis can outweigh potential side effects.
CASE DETAILS: Hereby, we present case of a 35-year-old women with known case of Protein C and S deficiency with twin pregnancy who presented with chronic venous thrombosis followed by acute episode in proximal vessels of lower limb. So intervention in the form of inferior vena cava filter insertion has to be done to prevent dreaded complication in the form of pulmonary thrombo-embolism.
CONCLUSION: When thromboprophylaxis fails, intervention procedure like IVC filter can be an effective modality of treatment in venous thrombosis.
