Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) constitutes around 10% of all DVT, and can cause both pul-monary embolism (PE) and post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) in the arm. The incidence of secondary UED-VT is increasing due to widespread use of central venous catheters in patients with cancer and other chronic diseases. We report a case of 51-year-old female diagnosed with upper extremity deep venous thrombosis in emergency department with no co-morbidities and its successful treatment.

Soft tissue ultrasound (ST-USS) has been shown to be of utmost importance in assessing patients with soft tissue infections in the emergency department or critical care unit. It aids in guiding the management of soft tissue infection based on the sonographic findings.
