Central venous thrombosis (CVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are complications that have been reported in association with the use of venous-peritoneal shunts (Le Veen). CVT usually develops around the proximal end of the catheter; the clinical course is varied and usually requires venous imaging to confirm the diagnosis. We present a case of CVT associated with PE, in which the thrombus was located in the right ventricular cavity (distal to the catheter tip). Two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography was used for diagnosis and follow-up.
中心静脉血栓形成(CVT)和肺栓塞(PE)是与使用静脉-腹腔分流术(Le Veen)相关的并发症。CVT通常发生在导管近端周围;临床过程多样,通常需要静脉成像来确诊。我们报告一例与PE相关的CVT病例,其中血栓位于右心室腔(导管尖端远端)。二维经食管超声心动图用于诊断和随访。
