Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (Paget-Schroetter syndrome) after surfing: A case report.
[thoracic outlet syndrome]
This
case
report
summarises
the
presentation
of
a
28
-
year
-old
female
with
signs
and
symptoms
characteristic
of
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
,
but
who
was
later
found
to
have
an
effort-induced
Upper
Extremity
Deep
Vein
Thrombosis
(
UEDVT
)
,
otherwise
known
as
Paget
-
Schroetter
syndrome
.
Effort-induced
UEDVT
is
rare
,
but
the
similarity
between
the
signs
and
symptoms
of
thoracic
outlet
syndrome
and
this
type
of
thrombosis
can
result
in
patients
with
this
condition
presenting
to
musculoskeletal
therapists
.
The
key
features
of
the
case
are
described
,
followed
by
an
overview
of
UEDVT
and
the
importance
of
recognising
this
condition
in
musculoskeletal
therapy
practice
.
The
role
of
therapists
in
referring
for
early
medical
diagnostics
is
key
to
ensuring
management
of
the
thrombosis
is
instigated
early
,
therefore
reducing
the
risk
of
life
threatening
consequences
such
as
pulmonary
embolism
.
