Intravascular fasciitis presenting as recurrent deep venous thrombosis
Intravascular fasciitis is a rare variant of nodular fasciitis, a benign process that results from proliferation of myofibroblasts in the soft tissues. Nodular fasciitis occurs most often in the upper extremities but can also develop in the head, neck, trunk, and lower extremities of young patients....

Sumario: | Intravascular fasciitis is a rare variant of nodular fasciitis, a benign process that results from proliferation of myofibroblasts in the soft tissues. Nodular fasciitis occurs most often in the upper extremities but can also develop in the head, neck, trunk, and lower extremities of young patients. The intravascular variant occurs within small- and medium-size vessels. We have described a case of femoral vein intravascular fasciitis presenting as recurrent deep venous thrombosis. |
