A 16-year-old Caucasian teenager developed fatigue, abdominal pain, pneumonia, and subsequently acute vascular occlusion of the left superficial femoral artery. Vascular assessment and heparin therapy lead to bone marrow aspiration and a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Treatment with chemotherapy prevented loss of limb and avoided further vascular surgery. Young patients with acute vascular occlusion require an in-depth assessment including attention to hematological disorders. Clots obtained on thromboembolectomy should be sent for pathological assessment and not discarded, especially in an unusual-age patient for arterial embolus.
一名16岁的白种青少年出现疲劳、腹痛、肺炎,随后左侧股浅动脉发生急性血管闭塞。血管评估和肝素治疗导致进行骨髓穿刺,并诊断为急性早幼粒细胞白血病。化疗治疗避免了肢体丧失,也避免了进一步的血管手术。急性血管闭塞的年轻患者需要进行深入评估,包括关注血液系统疾病。血栓切除术取出的血栓应送去做病理评估,而不应丢弃,特别是对于动脉栓塞的非典型年龄患者。
