Thrombus formation in the pulmonary vein stump after left upper lobectomy is supposedly a risk factor for systemic thrombosis, resulting in a critical course for the patient. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of the proximal ligation method preventing thrombus formation and thrombosis comparing the two groups of patients (those who ...

Pulmonary vein stump thrombosis and organ infarction after lung lobectomy
Journal of AnesthesiaLung resection surgery, which is performed as a treatment for lung cancer and metastatic lung tumors, is currently conducted via minimally invasive techniques such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and robot-assisted methods. Postoperative complications related to this surgery, such as pulmonary vein thrombosis and cerebral and other organ ...

We report a rare case of a pulmonary vein stump thrombus detected by a contrast-enhanced computed tomography for transient syncope 2 days after upper division segmentectomy of the left lung for metastatic pulmonary tumor. The thrombus disappeared without embolic events after anticoagulation with intravenous heparin followed by oral warfarin ...

Formation of pulmonary vein stump thrombus after anatomical lung resection and anticoagulant therapy
World Journal of SurgeryAbstractObjectiveIt has recently been suggested that the formation of pulmonary vein stump thrombus (PVST) after anatomical lung resection is an underlying cause of arterial thromboembolism including cerebrovascular infarction. This study aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors of PVST and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ...

Proximal ligation technique prevents thrombus formation in the pulmonary vein stump after lobectomy
Surgery TodayTo assess the risk factors for thrombosis in the pulmonary vein stump (PVT) and the efficacy of proximal ligation in preventing PVT after lobectomy.In total, 649 surgical patients with lung cancer were retrospectively reviewed. To compare the clinical effectiveness of PV proximal ligation, the simple stapler group (290 patients) and the proximal ...

A 46-year-old woman presented with loss of consciousness and was diagnosed with acute cerebral embolism. She had undergone left upper lobectomy for primary lung cancer 6 months before this event. Transesophageal echocardiography and computed tomography showed a large mobile thrombus in the left upper pulmonary vein (LSPV).

Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography
Lung lobectomy can cause a cerebral infarction due to thrombus formation in the pulmonary vein (PV). While contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) has commonly been used to detect thrombi, the utility of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for thrombus visualization, in the PV stump, is less known. Herein, a series of cases are provided, in which

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is an uncommon, life-threatening complication after living donor nephrectomy (LDN), and is considered among the most common causes for donor mortality. Most cases of postoperative PEs are thought to originate in deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremities.A 56-year-old, healthy woman underwent laparoscopic left LDN ...
