Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is closely associated with pulmonary thromboembolism. In approximately 90% of case, the lower limbs are the source of DVT. The detection rate for de novo and chronic thrombus of the soleal vein is highest in the embolism position of deep vein thrombosis. Because there are few symptoms characteristic for soleal vein thrombosis, its diagnosis by the clinical symptoms is very difficult. Recently, ultrasonography has become the first choice for the imaging and diagnosis of DVT, and is also useful for the diagnosis of soleal vein thrombus. In particular, it is very important for the detection of thrombus in the soleal vein return course. |
