Objective Given its rarity, the management of primary upper extremity deep vein thrombosis
is controversial. Although anticoagulation alone is commonly advocated for its treatment, it is …

BACKGROUND: Post-thrombotic syndrome is a chronic, potentially debilitating complication
of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity. Comparatively little is known about …
