• Phlebitis in pregnant women

  Quite often, varicothrombophlebitis develops in pregnant women in late pregnancy, so serious hormonal changes occur in the body of expectant «mothers », and an enlarged uterus with a fetus additionally«crushes» inferior vena cava, thereby slowing down the venous outflow. In this regard, if you have varicose veins and you decide to become pregnant or are already pregnant, you definitely need to contact a vascular surgeon to prevent adverse complications in the pre and postpartum period.

• What is dangerous thrombophlebitis

  With the progression of thrombophlebitis, the inflammatory process can spread from the saphenous veins to the level of the inguinal ligament (we are talking about acute ascending thrombophlebitis). In such cases, the thrombus may "prolapse" into deep veins, and a floating (floating, mobile) thrombus can form, which creates a real threat of pulmonary embolism (PE) in case of its separation.
