[Vascular Vibration Injury and Paget-Shroetter Syndrome]
Abstract:
Paget-Schroetter syndrome is a relatively uncommon condition related to primary thrombosis of the axillary/subclavian vein at the costoclavicular junction. Vibration injury is an unusual cause of this syndrome. We report on a 28-year-old man who presented with acute onset left arm swelling after whole-day work with a pneumatic drill. Duplex ultrasound confirmed the presence of a thrombus in his left axillary and subclavian vein, which was treated with low molecular weight heparin, eventually switched to oral anticoagulation.
