Is a popliteal vein thrombosis a DVT?

Popliteal vein thrombosis is a type of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is also called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). It is potentially life-threatening because the thrombus can sometimes break free and travel through the heart to the lungs. A thrombus that travels to the lungs is known as a pulmonary embolism (PE).

Is popliteal DVT proximal or distal?

Proximal DVT is one that is located in the popliteal, femoral, or iliac veins. Isolated distal DVT has no proximal component, is located below the knee, and is confined to the calf veins (peroneal, posterior, anterior tibial, and muscular veins) (table 1).

Where is left popliteal vein?

The popliteal vein is located at the posterior, or back, of the knee. It is responsible for the majority of the lower legs' venous return. 1 It is sometimes called the femoropopliteal vein.

Is popliteal vein a distal vein?

Distal DVT is located along the lower leg and includes the infrapopliteal veins, such as the posterior tibial, peroneal, anterior tibial and muscular calf veins (soleal or gemellar). The popliteal vein is not considered distal. Distal DVT is not as common as proximal DVT.

Is the popliteal vein deep or superficial?

The popliteal vein is a deep vein of the leg. It drains blood away from the leg into the femoral vein, which drains blood to the inferior vena cava to return to the right atrium of the heart. The deep veins contain valves just like the superficial veins of the body.

Which veins are considered DVT?

A blood clot in a deep vein of the leg, pelvis, and sometimes arm, is called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This type of blood clot does not cause heart attack or stroke.

How is popliteal DVT treated?

Treatment with anticoagulation is the accepted standard of care for DVT involving the proximal leg veins, specifically, the popliteal, femoral, and iliac veins.

Where is a distal DVT?

Distal DVT encompasses thromboses located below the knee in the calf veins (ie, the popliteal vein is not involved). Most calf vein DVTs are located in the posterior tibial and peroneal veins while anterior tibial and muscular vein DVTs are uncommon. Distal DVT can only be detected by whole leg ultrasonography.

What is the popliteal vein?

The popliteal vein is located posterior to the knee in the popliteal region that is a major route for venous return from the lower leg. The vein forms from the combination of the anterior and posterior tibial vein at the border of the popliteal artery.

Is the popliteal vein posterior to the popliteal artery?

Its relationship to the popliteal artery changes as the vein ascends, but it is always between the popliteal artery and tibial nerve. Distally it is medial to the artery, between the heads of gastrocnemius it is superficial (posterior) to it, and proximal to the knee joint it is posterolateral to the artery.

Is popliteal vein a continuation of femoral vein?

The femoral vein is a direct continuation of the popliteal vein just proximal to the knee. The vein ascends to the inguinal region, where it passes posterior to the inguinal ligament as the external iliac vein to enter the abdomen.
