The use of central venous catheters for various applications (administration of chemotherapy, blood products and others) in patients with cancer is increasingly frequent. The association between thrombosis and catheter use has been fully established but aspects such as its causes, diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment have not. We describe a case of thrombosis in a patient with cancer treated with chemotherapy who carried a central venous catheter. We also perform a review of the risk factors, the role of the prophylaxis and the treatment.
癌症患者因各种用途(化疗、血液制品及其他药物的输注)而使用中心静脉导管的情况日益频繁。血栓形成与导管使用之间的关联已得到充分证实,但其成因、诊断、预防及治疗等方面尚未明确。我们描述了一例接受化疗并携带中心静脉导管的癌症患者发生血栓的病例。我们还对危险因素、预防措施的作用及治疗方法进行了综述。
