    ISSN 2277-0879; Volume 2, Issue 5, pp. 57-61; May, 2013 Online Journal of Medicine and Medical Science Research ©2013 Online Research Journals Review Article Available Online at http://www.onlineresearchjournals.org/JMMSR Sulodexide: Review of recent clinical efficacy data Massimo Milani MD Private practice, Milan Italy, Via A. Nota 18, Milan, Italy. E-Mail: [email protected]. Received 17 April, 2013 Accepted 8 May, 2013 Sulodexide (SLX) is a peculiar and interesting antithrombotic drug. It is a highly purified mixture of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) with anticoagulant and antithrombotic properties used for the prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic diseases. The pharmacological effects of SLX differ substantially from other GAG and are mainly characterized by a prolonged half-life and reduced effect on global coagulation and bleeding parameters. SLX is able to potentiate the antiprotease activities of both antithrombin III and heparin cofactor II. SLX shows also in vitro and in vivo profibrinolytic actions. SLX exhibits antithrombotic and profibrinolytic properties in several animal models of venous and arterial thrombosis and has relatively high affinity for endothelial cells. By oral route SLX is able to release tissue plasminogen activator and increase fibrinolytic activities. SLX is clinically effective in the treatment of peripheral arterial vascular diseases and in the treatment of deep venous thrombosis. SLX has also been found clinically active in the treatment of venous ulcers of the leg. SLX has been also used with success in tinnitus and in the thrombosis of central ocular vein. Recent data suggest that SLX could have beneficial effects in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy and in reducing microalbuminuria.

Unilateral or bilateral inflam­ Chi-Shing Zee 1 matory changes in the orbital soft tissues were also present. Enlargement of the superior ophthalmic vein due to extension of thrombophlebitis was noted in three patients. Since the introduction of antibiotics, septic cavernous sinus thrombosis (throm­ bophlebitis) has become a rare disease [1-4]. Despite considerable improvement in morbidity and mortality (previously almost universal), it remains a potentially lethal disease. The diagnosis of cavernous sinus thrombophlebitis requires a careful clinical evaluation supplemented with appropriate laboratory and radiographic studies. Current computed tomographic (CT) scanners (having higher spatial and contrast resolution) play an important role in the radiographic evaluation of the diverse pathologiC processes that involve the cavernous sinus [5-7]. The use of CT has been documented in several isolated cases [8-13], and small series [14] dealing with the diagnosis and management of cavernous sinus thrombophlebitis. CT scanning in these cases was reported to be normal in two instances [8 , 10]. In other cases so studied, CT showed abnormalities such as orbital changes [11 , 14], paranasal sinusitis [12], and associated manifestations of intracranial infection [9]; however, no mention was made in these cases of thrombosis within the cavernous sinus itself. Direct CT demonstration of thrombosis within the cavernous sinus has been rarely reported [13].

  • Varicose Veins and Superficial Thrombophlebitis
    ENTITLEMENT ELIGIBILITY GUIDELINES VARICOSE VEINS AND SUPERFICIAL THROMBOPHLEBITIS 1. VARICOSE VEINS MPC 00727 ICD-9 454 DEFINITION Varicose Veins of the lower extremities are a dilatation, lengthening and tortuosity of a subcutaneous superficial vein or veins of the lower extremity such as the saphenous veins and perforating veins. A diagnosis of varicose veins is sometimes made in error when the veins are prominent but neither varicose or abnormal. This guideline excludes Deep Vein Thrombosis, and telangiectasis. DIAGNOSTIC STANDARD Diagnosis by a qualified medical practitioner is required. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY The venous system of the lower extremities consists of: 1. The deep system of veins. 2. The superficial veins’ system. 3. The communicating (or perforating) veins which connect the first two systems. There are primary and secondary causes of varicose veins. Primary causes are congenital and/or may develop from inherited conditions. Secondary causes generally result from factors other than congenital factors. VETERANS AFFAIRS CANADA FEBRUARY 2005 Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines - VARICOSE VEINS/SUPERFICIAL THROMBOPHLEBITIS Page 2 CLINICAL FEATURES Clinical onset usually takes place when varicosities in the affected leg or legs appear. Varicosities typically present as a bluish discolouration and may have a raised appearance. The affected limb may also demonstrate the following: • Aching • Discolouration • Inflammation • Swelling • Heaviness • Cramps Varicose Veins may be large and apparent or quite small and barely discernible. Aggravation for the purposes of Varicose Veins may be represented by the veins permanently becoming larger or more extensive, or a need for operative intervention, or the development of Superficial Thrombophlebitis. PENSION CONSIDERATIONS A. CAUSES AND/OR AGGRAVATION THE TIMELINES CITED BELOW ARE NOT BINDING.

  • Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE)
    How can it be prevented? You can take steps to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). If you're at risk for these conditions: • See your doctor for regular checkups. • Take all medicines as your doctor prescribes. • Get out of bed and move around as soon as possible after surgery or illness (as your doctor recommends).

  • Successful Surgical Management of Mesenteric Inflammatory Veno
    Matsuda et al. Surgical Case Reports (2020) 6:27 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40792-020-0796-1 CASE REPORT Open Access Successful surgical management of mesenteric inflammatory veno-occlusive disease Keiji Matsuda1* , Yojiro Hashiguchi1, Yoshinao Kikuchi2, Kentaro Asako1, Kohei Ohno1, Yuka Okada1, Takahiro Yagi1, Mitsuo Tsukamoto1, Yoshihisa Fukushima1, Ryu Shimada1, Tsuyoshi Ozawa1, Tamuro Hayama1, Takeshi Tsuchiya1, Keijiro Nozawa1, Yuko Sasajima2 and Fukuo Kondo2 Abstract Background: The term “mesenteric inflammatory veno-occlusive disease (MIVOD)” is used to describe an ischemic injury resulting from phlebitis or venulitis that affects the bowel or mesentery in the absence of arteritis. MIVOD is difficult to diagnose because of its rarity and frequent confusion with other diseases. The incidence and etiology of MIVOD remain unclear; only a few cases have been reported. We describe a case of the successful surgical management of a patient with MIVOD with characteristic images. Case presentation: A 65-year-old Japanese man visited a hospital with the chief complaint of abdominal pain in January 2018. CT showed edema and thickening of the intestinal wall from the descending colon to the rectum. The patient was admitted to the hospital. Suspected diagnoses were enteritis, ulcerative colitis, amyloidosis, vasculitis, malignant lymphoma, and venous thrombus, but no definitive diagnosis was obtained. The patient was transferred to our hospital for the treatment of stenosis (located from the descending colon to the rectum) and bowel obstruction. An emergency transverse colostomy was performed. The sigmoid colon and mesentery were too rigid and edematous to resect. Colonic hemorrhage occurred 2 weeks after the surgery. With radiology intervention, coiling for the arteriovenous fistula in the descending colon was performed, and hemostasis was obtained.
