Abstract:
Lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LDVT) is one of the most common complications in orthopedic surgery, and it often occurs in the first 24 h after operation. We report a case of delayed LDVT, which occurred on d 16 after operation for osteofibrous dysplasia on the left femur. Upon the diagnosis confirmed, thrombolysis and anticoagulation therapy was conducted. The symptoms disappeared 3 weeks later and lower limb vascular ultrasound examination showed no remnant thrombosis.
