This is the first case report describing brachiocephalic vein thrombosis without compression by a metastatic tumor during chemotherapy for testicular cancer. According to previous reports of testicular cancer patients with a major thrombus, anticoagulant therapy was required to resolve all cases. However, in the present case, a major thrombus in the brachiocephalic vein disappeared without anticoagulant therapy. This 42-year-old man was diagnosed with testicular seminoma and multiple metastases to the para-aortic lymph nodes. After three cycles of cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin (PEB) therapy, a major thrombus in the right brachiocephalic vein was recognized on a CT scan. Although no anticoagulant therapy was undertaken, the thrombus in the right brachiocephalic vein was no longer visible on CT after the 4th cycle of PEB therapy.

There was no recommendation in the current guidelines for how long after the pulmonary embolism (PE) attack the patient can fly again safely on an airplane. A 45 years old female was admitted to our hospital because of deep vein thrombosis and acute PE. Due to persistent leg swelling and afraid of recurrent PE for long distance flights, this patient received four weeks anticoagulant therapy before flying. Eventually, she flew back safely. This report describes our preliminary experience for managing this patient with deep vein thrombosis and PE.

Summary: A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with pre-fibrotic myelofibrosis after acute left lower-limb ischemia requiring amputation and portal vein thrombosis. After surgery he developed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with venous thromboembolism, successfully treated with argatroban followed by dabigatran. Our systematic review of the literature supports the use of dabigatran for suspected HIT.

SummaryTreatment with streptokinase (‘Kabikinase’) was given to 26 patients with venographically confirmed deep vein thrombosis extending into the popliteal vein or above. Treatment was continued for 4 days and the patients were allocated randomly to oral anticoagulant therapy or a course of treatment with ancrod (‘Arvin’) for 6 days followed by oral anticoagulant therapy. The degree of thrombolysis as judged by further venographic examination at 10 days was not significantly different between the 2 groups. The majority of patients showed clinical improvement but there was no appreciable difference between the groups at 3 and 6 months. Haemorrhagic complications were a more serious problem during the period of treatment with ancrod than during the equivalent period in the control group.

Background: Dabigatran is a novel oral anticoagulant molecule which is a direct thrombin (Factor IIa) inhibitor and is used for prevention of stroke and systemic embolism. It is easy to administer as compared to warfarin therapy as it does not require routine laboratory monitoring and has fewer drug interactions. Objective: To present a rare case of oral ulcers secondary to dabigatran in a patient with deep vein thrombosis. Case report: A 68-year-old female presented with painful oral ulcers, retrosternal pain and difficulty in swallowing. She had been taking capsule Dabigatran for the prevention of systemic embolism for 2 months. She had experienced symptoms of onset taking dabigatran for 7 days. Clinical examination revealed three tender, well-defined, clean looking ulcers of various sizes present over the dorsum of the tongue. Dabigatran was withdrawn and the patient was on oral proton pump inhibitors. Patient showed remarkable improvement in oral ulcers after 2 weeks. Conclusion: Patient education and counseling should be done regarding this side effect of dabigatran and proper intake of this medicine.
