Ytlig tromboflebit, ytlig ventrombos

Senast reviderad:
Sakkunnig:
Definition:
Trombotisering av en ytlig ven med samtidig lokal kärlväggsinflammation.
Förekomst:
Relativt vanligt tillstånd. 
Symtom:
Smärta, ömhet, ödem och/eller erytem i den ytliga venen.
Kliniska fynd:
Ofta känns en öm, indurerad sträng med lokala inflammationstecken.
Diagnostik:
Vanligen räcker anamnes och status för diagnos. Vid ökad risk för samtidig DVT rekommenderas ultraljudsundersökning.
Behandling:
Vid distala ytliga tromboflebiter utan ökad risk för DVT räcker symtomlindrande behandling. I övriga fall rekommenderas utökad diagnostik och/eller behandling med antikoagulantia.
