Isolated superficial vein thrombosis in multiple thrombotic defects.

We describe a case of SVT in a patient with multiple thrombotic defects, for which we starting Fondaparinux 2.5 mg/die and stopped it when the SVT was solved. During the follow-up period (eighteen months) no Deep Vein Thrombosis or Superficial Vein Thrombosis were detected. Clinical surveillance seems to have been the best strategy for this patient. We believe that this single case report emphasizes the needed of prospective studies to verify the risk of thromboembolic recurrence in thrombophilic patients with SVT. (www.actabiomedica.it).
