Massive septic pelvic Thrombophlebitis
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1993Co-Authors: K P Magee, J D Blanco, J M GrahamAbstract:Background: Septic pelvic Thrombophlebitis is a major complication of endometritis. The thrombi commonly occur in the uterine and/or ovarian veins and may extend into the inferior vena cava. Case: Following vaginal delivery, a 19-year-old woman, gravida 2, developed postpartum septic pelvic Thrombophlebitis extending from the right ovarian vein up to the diaphragm and down to the femoral vein. The patient was treated successfully with heparin and antibiotics, and eventually was discharged on oral anticoagulants for an extended period. Follow-up revealed complete resolution of the thrombus. Conclusion: Septic pelvic Thrombophlebitis is not limited to the pelvis and lower abdominal vessels.(Obstet Gynecol 1993;82:662-4)

Septic Thrombophlebitis
American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs, 2006Co-Authors: Julio A. Chirinos, Javier Garcia, Maria L. Alcaide, Geraldine Toledo, Gio J. Baracco, Daniel M. LichtsteinAbstract:Septic Thrombophlebitis, as a result of invasion from adjacent nonvascular infections, includes conditions such as Lemierre syndrome (internal jugular vein septic Thrombophlebitis), pylephlebitis (portal vein septic Thrombophlebitis), and septic Thrombophlebitis of the dural sinuses and the pelvic veins. All of these conditions are associated with a very high mortality if untreated. Appropriate antibacterial therapy dramatically improves the outcome of these infections and results in a low mortality rate, with the notable exception of septic Thrombophlebitis of the durai sinuses. The endovascular nature of these infections results in secondary metastatic disease, including pneumonia, endocarditis, and arthritis due to septic embolization and/or hematogenous bacterial spread. The appropriate diagnosis and management of these infections depends on a high degree of clinical suspicion, the use of imaging studies, and early initiation of empiric antibacterial therapy. In this article, we review the diagnosis and management of septic Thrombophlebitis, focusing on Lemierre syndrome, pylephlebitis, and septic Thrombophlebitis of the pelvic veins.

Thrombophlebitis of superior mesenteric vein with bacteremia of gemella sanguinis and streptococcus gordonii
Journal of Microbiology Immunology and Infection, 2019Co-Authors: Hea Yoon Kwon, Areum DureyAbstract:Abstract Pylephlebitis is a condition with Thrombophlebitis of the portal mesenteric venous system. Herein, we report a patient suggesting odontogenic bacteremia as a risk factor of pylephlebitis. He was diagnosed as superior mesenteric vein Thrombophlebitis, and blood cultures grew Gemella sanguinis and Streptococcus gordonii .
