We recently performed digital subtraction venography and detected axillary venous thrombosis in a 56-year-old female with nonspecific symptoms related to the right arm following a permanent transvenous endocardial pacemaker implantation two years ago. In view of its cost-effectiveness and less invasive approach, digital venography appears ideally suited for evaluation of the frequently occurring subclinical deep venous thrombosis in these patients.
