Overview
Spontaneous axillary-subclavian vein thrombosis (ASVT) has been first described by Cruveilhier. Sir James Paget identified the subclavian vein thrombosis in one of his patients. Hughes created the term "Paget-Schroetter".
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Spontaneous axillary-subclavian vein thrombosis (ASVT) has been first described by Cruveilhier in 1816.[1]
- In 1875, Sir James Paget identified the subclavian vein thrombosis in one of his patients. [2]
- Von Schroetter was the first one who hypothesized the relation between vascular injury from muscle strain and subclavian vein thrombosis in 1894. [3]
- In 1949 Hughes created the term "Paget-Schroetter" and published the first review.[4]
- The father of a patient used google to diagnose his son's Paget-Von Schrötter syndrome by querying on the symptoms, and it resulted in one of the first descriptions of "googling for diagnosis".[5]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- Lee et al. used a treatment approach started with catheter-directed thrombolysis.
- J. Ernesto Molina, MD, a vascular surgeon at the University of Minnesota, has expressed the following opinion:[6]
- "The currently acceptable treatment for that condition is lytic therapy followed by surgery. The patients were followed up to investigate the rate of recurrence. However, if surgery is not done, the problem will invariably recur. If patients are treated with only anticoagulants and even thrombolytics but no surgery, I expect the recurrence rate to be high."
- "Most patients who suffer this condition do not have any abnormality in their coagulation mechanism" and in fact suffer from "A direct injury to the endothelium,"
- "Treatment for Paget-Schroetter syndrome entails the use of thrombolytics followed by surgery to decompress the thoracic inlet and widening of the vein, usually with a vein patch."
- Molina et al. reported 5 years of 100% vein patency and complete symptom resolution in patients who treated with thrombolysis and first rib resection.[7]
