BACKGROUND
A catheter lock solution containing 1.35% taurolidine and 4% citrate could potentially disrupt bacterial surface adherence and consecutive biofilm production due to the anti-adherence properties of taurolidine and the anticlotting and chelator activities of both compounds.

OBJECTIVE
To present a case of acute adrenal insufficiency secondary to heparin-induced thrombocytopenia-thrombosis syndrome (HITTS), an important though rare complication of heparin therapy.
METHODS
A 69-year-old woman developed HITTS secondary to low dose heparin administered subcutaneously as
A 25-year-old, 7-weeks pregnant woman was admitted to the Nagaoka Red Cross Hospital in a state of confusion, following fever, headache and vomiting. Brain CT and MRI showed swelling in the bilateral thalami, basal ganglia and splenium of corpus callosum, and thrombosis of the internal cerebral
A 78-year-old woman visited the emergency department with complaints of progressively worsening abdominal pain for a week. Nausea and vomiting started at the time of the visit. An abdominal contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) revealed a filling defect of portal vein, splenic vein and superior mesenteric
In Japan, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using reservoir system is recommended for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) whose hepatic spare ability is favorable. Arterial infusion catheter is commonly detained in hepatic artery via femoral or brachial artery. In our hospital,
A 27-year-old patient at 13 weeks' gestation maintained on subcutaneous heparinization due to hemoglobin S and hemoglobin C (SC) sickle cell disease and previous splenic vein thrombosis presented with spontaneous acute onset of severe left lower abdominal and groin pain. The pain, which radiated to
BACKGROUND
Acute mesenteric ischaemia may occur due to mesenteric arterial embolus, thrombosis, non-occlusive mesenteric ischaemia or venous thrombosis resulting in ischaemia of the bowel wall.
METHODS
A 41year old woman presented with worsening abdominal pain, decreased appetite, nausea and
The safety/tolerance of anisoylated plasminogen streptokinase activator complex (APSAC) versus heparin therapy in acute myocardial infarction has been studied in the first 65 patients treated in a multicentre study. A transient marked hypotensive effect was observed in 2 patients on APSAC given over
The diagnosis of adrenal haemorrhage complicating heparin therapy is often delayed, despite computed tomography (CT). Moreover, its pathogenesis is not clear. Adrenal haemorrhages are often seen in cases where there is no unduly excessive anticoagulation, and can be accompanied by a paradoxical
OBJECTIVE
We chose to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combined intrathrombus rtPA and intravenous heparin in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT).
METHODS
We treated 12 patients with symptoms of 1 to 40 days' duration (eg, headache, somnolence, focal deficits, seizures, and nausea and vomiting).
Orally administered dipyridamole in combination with naproxen was compared with subcutaneously administered low-dose heparin in prevention of deep venous thrombosis after abdominal hysterectomy. The radioactive fibrinogen test was used to diagnose thrombosis. Only one patient in the total series of
Low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) has become a popular agent for prophylaxis against deep vein thrombosis and thromboembolic disease after total joint arthroplasty. LMWH allows for consistent dosing in postoperative patients without the need for laboratory monitoring. Hemorrhage is an uncommon but
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of successful use of unfractionated heparin (UFH) infusion to treat cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST).
METHODS
A 54-year-old female with a history of ovarian cancer addressed through palliative care, presents to the Emergency Department complaining of nausea,
OBJECTIVE
We describe a rare case of anaphylaxis and thrombocytopenia whose cause was heparin used during hemodialysis sessions.
METHODS
A 77-year-old woman suffered five consecutive episodes of vomiting, tachypnea, wheezing or rales, immediately after initiating hemodialysis. In the first of these
The association between cancer and venous thromboembolism (VTE) is well established. Importantly, VTE is a significant cause of mortality in cancer patients. Although long-term warfarin (Coumadin(trade mark); Bristol-Myers Squibb; New York, NY) therapy is the mainstay of treatment for cancer
