Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) is presumed to be more benign than proximal
DVT (PDVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE), suggesting a need for different management …

Background: The clinical significance of symptomatic isolated distal deep vein thrombosis
(DVT) is uncertain. Consequently, this leads to important disparities in its management …

Background Isolated, distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) is thought to have low rates of
propagation, embolization, and recurrence compared with proximal DVT (PDVT), but the …

Essentials• The optimal management of isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT) is
undefined.• This meta‐analysis aimed to assess the clinical benefit of anticoagulation for …

Background Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT), a disease frequently detected in
hospitalized patients, can progress to proximal deep vein thrombosis (PDVT) and pulmonary …

Importance Insufficient data exist about the clinical presentation, short-term, and long-term
outcomes of patients with isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (IDDVT), that is, thrombosis in …

One standard diagnostic approach of suspected deep vein thrombosis consists of serial
lower limb compression ultrasound of proximal veins. Studies evaluating compression …

Background Overall, 30 to 50% of lower-limb deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) cases are isolated
distal DVT (IDDVT). The recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk is unclear, leaving …

Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) represents an important clinical problem but
there is no consensus regarding its management. The aim of this review was to evaluate the …

Background Isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (iDDVT)(ie without proximal DVT or
pulmonary embolism) represents half of all cases of lower limb DVT. Its clinical significance …
