Resumo A artéria subclávia direita aberrante, também conhecida como artéria lusória, é a anomalia do arco aórtico mais comum, ocorrendo entre 0,5 e 1% da população. Possui prevalência em mulheres e normalmente está associada a outras variações anatômicas, como o nervo laríngeo não recorrente, presente em 86,7% dos casos. Em sua maioria, a artéria subclávia direita aberrante não apresenta sintomas. Descrevemos essa alteração em uma paciente de 82 anos, hipertensa e assintomática, que havia sido submetida a uma angiotomografia toracoabdominal para a avaliação de uma dissecção crônica tipo III (DeBakey) associada à dilatação de aorta descendente. No achado, a artéria subclávia direita aberrante apresentava percurso retroesofágico associado a um divertículo de Kommerell. Devido à raridade, realizamos revisão bibliográfica integrativa das bases de dados MEDLINE, UpToDate, LILACS, SciELO e Portal CAPES dos últimos 6 anos e discutimos as alterações anatômicas mais frequentes, a sintomatologia e as condutas terapêuticas adotadas. Abstract The aberrant right subclavian artery, also known as the arteria lusoria, is the most common aortic arch anomaly, occurring in 0.5 to 1% of the population. There is a higher prevalence in women and it is usually associated with other anatomical variations, such as the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve, present in 86.7% of cases. In the majority of cases, the aberrant right subclavian artery causes no symptoms. We describe this anomaly in an 82-year-old, hypertensive, and asymptomatic patient who had undergone a thoracoabdominal angiography to investigate a chronic DeBakey type III aortic dissection with dilation of the descending aorta. The aberrant right subclavian artery followed a retroesophageal course and was associated with a Kommerell diverticulum. In view of its rarity, we conducted an integrative bibliographic review of literature from the last 6 years indexed on the Medline, UpToDate, Lilacs, Scielo, and Portal Capes databases and discuss the most frequent anatomical changes, symptomatology, and therapeutic management adopted.

- Abstract
Introduction: Treatment of cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (CAVTE) remains challenging. The aim of this study was to assess the outcomes of direct acting oral anticoagulants (DOAs) for the treatment of CAVTE. Materials and methods: A network meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials comparing DOAs (Apixaban, Rivaroxaban, and Edoxaban) versus Dalteparin for the treatment of CAVTE was performed. Outcomes of interest included, VTE recurrence, all-cause mortality, event-free survival, major bleeding, and clinically relevant non-major bleeding (CRNMB). Analysis was based on a random effects model and Bayesian Markov-chain Monte Carlo method was used for indirect comparisons. Results: Four RCTs involving 2894 patients were included. Overall certainty of evidence was moderate regarding all outcomes. DOAs exhibited lower risk of VTE (RR 0.62; 95% CI 0.44, 0.87; P = 0.007), similar risk of major bleeding (RR 1.33; 95% CI 0.84, 2.11; P = 0.23), and higher risk of CRNMB (RR 1.66, 95% CI 1.08, 2.56; P = 0.02), compared with Dalteparin. Risk of all-cause mortality and event-free survival were similar between groups with RR 0.99 (95% CI 0.84, 1.16) and RR 1.03 (95% CI 0.94, 1.13), respectively. Apixaban ranked first for recurrent VTE (42.4%) and major bleeding (62.3%) and Dalteparin ranked first for CRNMB (54.7%). Rivaroxaban ranked best considering all-cause mortality (58.7%); Apixaban ranked best for event-free survival (83.6%). Conclusions: DOAs presented a reduced risk of recurrent VTE with similar risk of major bleeding compared to Dalteparin. However, a higher risk of CRNMB is expected when this cohort of patients are treated with DOAs instead of Dalteparin. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumo O trombo venoso flutuante em veia femoral é um tipo de trombo com alto potencial de embolização pulmonar. Entretanto, ainda é controversa a conduta mais apropriada nesses casos. Tratamentos clínicos com anticoagulantes ou fibrinolíticos e trombectomias abertas ou por meio de dispositivos endovasculares vêm sendo empregados ainda sem um critério de indicação bem definido. Apresentamos três casos clínicos de trombos flutuantes em veia femoral, de etiologias distintas, cujos tratamentos e respectivas evoluções serão discutidos. Abstract A floating venous thrombus in the femoral vein is a type of thrombus with a high potential for pulmonary embolization. However, the most appropriate management for these cases is still controversial. Clinical treatments, using anticoagulants or fibrinolytics, open thrombectomies, or thrombectomies by means of endovascular devices have all been used, although the criteria for indication of each are not yet defined. We present 3 clinical cases of floating thrombi in femoral veins with different etiologies and discuss their respective treatments and outcomes.

No. of bitstreams: 1 brandao_gms_dr_bot.pdf: 2703945 bytes, checksum: d9034b6210add676a4f9b7cbf4c31ad3 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-05-25 Pentasaccharides para o tratamento da trombose venosa profunda Questão da revisão: Os novos anticoagulantes da classe dos pentasaccharides podem ser uma alternativa eficaz e segura aos anticoagulantes convencionais utilizados na terapia padrão do tratamento da trombose venosa profunda? Visão geral: Trombose venosa profunda (TVP) é uma doença grave e potencialmente fatal que se caracteriza pela formação aguda de um coágulo de sangue nas veias profundas. Sua incidência aumenta exponencialmente com a idade e estima-se que na população geral, sua incidência seja de 5 casos em 10,000 habitantes. O tratamento padrão se faz por meio de medicamentos anticoagulantes, inicialmente pela administração de medicamentos injetáveis, as heparinas, por 5 a 7 dias e em seguida pelo uso prolongado de medicamentos de uso oral, os antagonistas da vitamina K. Entretanto, o alto risco de sangramento e a necessidade de um rigoroso controle laboratorial, permanecem como importantes limitações à terapia padrão. Os pentasaccharides são anticoagulantes sintéticos que podem apresentar vantagens em relação ao tratamento convencional como um efeito mais previsível, um regime de dosagem mais conveniente, a ausência da necessidade de controle laboratorial, ausência de interações com medicamentos e/ou alimentos, ausência da temida diminuição das plaquetas induzida pela heparina e em muitos casos melhor custo-benefício. Características chaves e resultados: Nossas buscas, realizadas até julho de 2015, identificaram 20 entre 730 registros que representavam 5 estudos elegíveis, compreendendo um total de 6981 pacientes. Os estudos compararam os pentasaccharides fondaparinux, idraparinux e idrabiotaparinux com a terapia padrão (heparina seguida por antagonista da vitamina K). O principal resultado de eficácia foi feito pela avaliação da incidência de qualquer episódio tromboembolismo venoso (novo episódio de TVP ou embolia pulmonar) durante o tratamento. E o principal resultado de danos foi incidência de sangramento. Esta revisão mostrou que os pentasaccharides (fondaparinux, e a dose de 2.5 mg de idraparinux e a dose equivalente de 3.0 mg de idrabiotaparinux) podem ser uma alternativa eficaz e segura a anticoagulação convencional para o tratamento da TVP. Qualidade da evidência: A qualidade da evidência foi considerada moderada a alta. Um único estudo incluído (Persist) poderia ser julgado potencialmente falho devido ao relevante número de pacientes que foram perdidos ou descontinuaram prematuramente o tratamento após a randomização. De forma geral, os estudos incluídos responderam diretamente as perguntas e foram considerados de boa qualidade. Os resultados dos estudos foram consistentes e os efeitos estimados foram precisos. Nós acreditamos que seja improvável que a maioria dos nossos principais resultados de eficácia e danos possam ser modificados por estudos adicionais. Entretanto, estudos futuros com os pentasaccharides de meia vida prolongada (idraparinux e idrabiotaparinux) em baixas doses podem confirmar nossas estimativas com relação a sua não inferioridade em comparação à terapia padrão. Background: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a severe disorder caused by acute formation of a clot or thrombus in the deep vein system. The incidence of DVT increases with age: from 2 to 3/10,000 in adults aged 30 to 49 years to 20/10,000 in adults aged 70 to 79 years. If left untreated, the clot can travel up to the lungs and cause a potentially life-threatening pulmonary embolism (PE). Standard treatment is based on antithrombotic therapy, initially with parenteral administration of unfractionated heparin or low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) for five to seven days, then subsequent long-term oral vitamin K antagonists (e.g. warfarin) therapy. However, hemorrhagic complications are a major concern associated with warfarin treatment. Indeed, the hemorrhagic risk of warfarin and the required laboratory control remain the Achilles’ heel of vitamin K antagonist management. The pentasaccharides have characteristics that may be favourable over conventional treatment, including a predictable effect, lack of frequent monitoring or re-dosing and few known drug interactions and absence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. To date, no systematic review has measured the effectiveness and safety of these drugs in the treatment of DVT. Objectives: To assess the efficacy and harms of pentasaccharides for the treatment of deep venous thrombosis. Search strategy: 1 The Cochrane Peripheral Vascular Diseases Group Trials Search Co-ordinator searched the Specialised Register (last searched July 2015) and the Cochrane Register of Studies (last searched July 2015). We searched clinical trials databases for details of ongoing or unpublished studies and the reference lists of relevant articles retrieved by electronic searches for additional citations. Selection criteria: We included randomised controlled trials in which people with a DVTconfirmed by standard imaging techniques, were allocated to receive a pentasaccharide (fondaparinux, idraparinux or idrabiotaparinux) for the treatment of DVT. Data collection and analysis: Three review authors (GB, DJ and MS) independently extracted the data and assessed the risk of bias in the trials. Any disagreements were resolved by discussion. We performed meta-analyses when we considered heterogeneity low. The two primary outcomes were recurrent VTE and major (and clinically non-major) bleeding. Other outcomes included all-cause mortality, recurrent DVT, PE, thrombocytopenia, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia syndrome and all other adverse effects induced by the treatments . We calculated all outcomes using a relative risk (RR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Main results: We included 5 randomised controlled trials of 6981 participants. Two studies tested fondaparinux, while three tested idraparinux (being one tested idrabiotaparinux). We deemed all included studies to be of high methodological quality and generally low risk of bias. The quality of the evidence was generally graded as high as the outcomes were direct and effect estimates were consistent and precise, as reflected in the narrow CIs around the RRs. Meta-analysis of two studies (2658 participants) comparing fondaparinux with standard anticoagulation groups showed no difference in the risk of recurrent VTE (RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.60 to 1.29). The RR of bleeding in the initial period of treatment (RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.73 to 1.22) and three months of follow up (RR 0.61, 95% CI 0.36 to 1.01) were similar comparing both interventions. Two studies comparing idraparinux with standard therapy showed no difference in the risk of recurrent VTE during three months (RR 1.51; 95% CI 0.26, 8.90) and (RR 0.79; 95% CI 0.21; 2.91). The treatment with idraparinux clearly showed a bleeding risk with a pattern dose-response. However, at a dose of 2.5 mg idraparinux, there was no significant difference in the risk of bleeding in patients receiving idrapaparinux in comparison to standard therapy during six months of follow up (RR 0.92, 95% CI 0.69 to 1.22). One study contributed with data for the analysis (n=741 participants) that there was no significant difference in the risk of recurrent VTE during six months follow-up between idrabiotaparinux compared with idraparinux (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.30 to 1.66). The risk of bleeding was also similar comparing the two interventions (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.49 to 1.04). Authors' conclusions: The pentasaccharides (fondaparinux, the dose of 2.5 mg idraparinux and equimolar dose of 3.0 mg idrabiotaparinux) may be an effective and safe alternative to conventional anticoagulation treatment for acute DVT.

A SPT é doença crônica, com consideráveis conseqüências socioeconômicas para os pacientes serviços de saúde. Sua fisiopatologia relaciona-se com o surgimento de hipertensão venosa, que ocorre devido à incompetência valvular e a obstrução da veia pelo trombo residual. Assim, é importante conhecer o processo de recanalização das veias trombosadas para melhor compreensão das seqüelas da TVP. Avaliar e quantificar o processo inicial de recanalização das veias dos membros inferiores após um episódio de TVP aguda pelo mapeamento dúplex em cores (MDC). Estudou-se pelo MDC 12 pacientes na fase aguda (até 10 dias), no 1°, 3º e 6º mês após o episódio agudo de TVP. Os pacientes foram mantidos com terapia anticoagulante adequada por 6 meses e orientados a usar meias de compressão elástica. Para avaliar e quantificar a recanalização foram utilizados o escore trombótico (ET) e a variação percentual do diâmetro venoso na máxima compressibilidade em relação a sua ausência (Δ%Øvmax/Øvsem). O ET foi verificado em 18 segmentos venosos (veias ilíaca externa; femoral comum; femoral profunda; femoral ao nível da junção e a 10 cm da prega inguinal; poplítea supra patelar e cavo; fibulares; tibiais posteriores; gastrocnêmias; soleares; veia safena magna ao nível da crossa, terço proximal, médio e distal; veia safena parva ao nível da crossa, terço proximal e médio). Segmentos venosos patentes tiveram ET de zero. A TVP foi considerada parcialmente oclusiva quando o segmento venoso foi não compressível com um sinal Doppler presente (ET = 1). Considerou-se a TVP totalmente oclusiva quando o segmento venoso foi não compressível e o sinal Doppler não foi encontrado (ET = 2). Para cada membro foi calculado o ET total... The deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower limbs is a serious, potentially fatal disease and it can lead to the post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). The PTS is a chronic disease, with considerable social and economical consequences for the patients and health services. His physiopathology is connected with the appearance of vein high blood pressure that takes place due to the valval incompetence and the obstruction of the vein for the residual thrombus. So, it is important to know the process of recanalization of the thrombosed veins for better understanding of the sequels of the DVT. The objective of this study was to evaluate and quantify the early recanalization of the vein of the lower limbs after acute DVT by duplex ultrasound scanning (DUS). Twelve elegible patients were examined by DUS at acute phase (less than 10 days), 1°, 3º and 6º months after the first episode of DVT. All patients were treated initially with unfractionated heparin or low-molecular-weightheparin followed by oral anticoagulation for 6 months and strongly encouraged to use compression stockings. To evaluate and quantify the recanalization of the veins were used the thrombus escore (TS) and the percentage variation of the vein diameter during the maximal compressibility regarding his absence (PVVDMA). The thrombus score (TS) assigned to 18 vein segments: external iliac vein; common femoral vein; deep femoral vein; confluence of femoral and deep femoral vein; femoral vein 10 cm at the inguinal ligament; popliteal vein suprapatellar; popliteal vein fossa; fibular veins; posterior tibial veins; gastrocnemius veins; soleal veins; sapheno-femoral junction; grate saphenous...

- Abstract
A number of limitations of standard therapy with warfarin for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) have been established. This overview of systematic reviews presents the baseline results for efficacy and safety of the new direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) thrombin inhibitors, and activated factor X (Xa) inhibitors in patients with DVT. Searches were run on PubMed and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Twenty-three studies were retrieved, and one systematic review was judged eligible. This review scored maximum according to AMSTAR criteria and included 7,596 patients for analysis of thrombin inhibitors and 16,356 patients for analysis of factor Xa inhibitors. The results of the meta-analysis indicate that DOACs are similar for DVT treatment when compared to standard treatment with warfarin. The incidence of major bleeding is somewhat lower in patients treated with factor Xa inhibitors and similar to standard therapy when treated with direct thrombin inhibitors., Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest: No conflicts of interest declared concerning the publication of this article.
