Abstract

Deep venous thrombosis is very rare in childhood and is mostly associated with an underlying risk factor, the primary risk factor being the venous catheter. Two children were diagnosed as having deep venous thrombosis and were treated successfully with low molecular weight heparin. No underlying risk factor could be determined. Genetic risk factors and malignancies should be inquired at these ages when deep venous thrombosis is encountered. Low molecular weight heparin should be preferred in acute cases and for long-term treatment because of its safety and practical use.

Özet

Derin venöz sistem trombozları çocukluk çağında çok nadir görülür; genelde altta yatan bir risk faktörü bulunur ve en sık neden venöz kateterdir. Kliniğimize başvuran iki çocuk olguda derin ven trombüsü (DVT) tespit edildi. İki hasta da düşük molekül ağırlıklı heparin uygulanarak başarı ile tedavi edildi. Olgularda altta yatan herhangi bir risk faktörü tespit edilemedi. Bu yaşlarda karşılaşılan DVT olgularında özellikle genetik risk faktörleri ve maligniteler araştırılmalıdır. Akut dönemde ve uzun süreli tedavide düşük molekül ağırlıklı heparinler güvenli ve pratik olması açısından tercih edilmelidir.
