To document the incidence of proximal deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in 58 consecutive Japanese patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty or total knee arthroplasty.
Patients were routinely examined for proximal deep vein thrombosis by B-mode ultrasonography before and after surgery. Those patients who had ultrasonographic findings of deep vein thrombosis were also investigated for pulmonary embolism by ventilation-perfusion lung scan.
The incidence of deep vein thrombosis after total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty were 9.1% and 4.0% respectively, and the incidence of pulmonary embolism were 3.0% and 0%, respectively. There were no cases of fatal pulmonary embolism.
The incidence of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in Japanese patients may have increased over the last few decades.
记录58例连续接受全髋关节置换术或全膝关节置换术的日本患者近端深静脉血栓形成和肺栓塞的发生率。
患者在手术前后常规通过B型超声检查近端深静脉血栓形成。对那些超声检查发现深静脉血栓形成的患者,还通过通气-灌注肺扫描检查肺栓塞。
全髋关节置换术后和全膝关节置换术后深静脉血栓形成的发生率分别为9.1%和4.0%,肺栓塞的发生率分别为3.0%和0%。无致命性肺栓塞病例。
在过去几十年中,日本患者深静脉血栓形成和肺栓塞的发生率可能有所增加。
