Abstract. Background: Isolated great saphenous vein thrombus (GSVT) is generally regarded as benign, and treatment is heterogeneous. Complications include thrombus propagation, new saphenous vein thrombosis, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and symptom persistence.
Great Saphenous Vein (GSV) – The GSV is the large superficial vein of the leg and the longest vein in the entire body. It can be found along the length of the lower limb, returning blood from the thigh, calf, and foot to the deep femoral vein at the femoral triangle. The femoral triangle is located in the upper thigh.
Objective: Acute superficial vein thrombosis (SVT) of the axial veins, such as the great saphenous vein (GSV), is a common clinical condition that carries with it significant risk of propagation of thrombus, recurrence, and, most concerning, subsequent venous thromboembolism (VTE).
The saphenous vein (otherwise known as the great saphenous vein or GSV) is the longest in the human body. It extends from the top of the foot to the upper thigh/groin area and like all veins, problems can occur.
The great saphenous vein is the largest vein of the human body. It is also known as the long saphenous vein. The great saphenous vein starts from the medial marginal vein of foot, runs superficially along the length of the lower limb, to finally empty into the femoral vein.
A saphenous vein is a vein in the leg that drains blood out of the leg and back to the heart. Each leg has a great saphenous vein, which travels along the front of the leg, and a small saphenous vein (also called the lesser saphenous vein), which travels along the back of the calf.
SVT in the superficial axial veins (great saphenous vein or small saphenous vein) is generally considered to warrant aggressive treatment with low molecular weight heparin to prevent extension into the deep venous system, particularly if the SVT is close to the junction with the common femoral or popliteal veins.
As it runs up the thigh, it remains on the medial side. The femoral triangle, at the top of the thigh and pelvis, is accessed by the great saphenous vein via an opening called the saphenous opening. It is here—at what's called the saphenofemoral junction—that it terminates into the femoral vein.
The saphenous vein is like your appendix in the sense that if it is not functioning properly then you do not need it anymore. Most varicose vein procedures involve endovenous ablation in order to gently destroy the saphenous vein.
Superficial thrombophlebitis: If the vein that has the clot is just under the skin, it is called a superficial venous thrombosis or superficial thrombophlebitis. This type of clot does not usually travel to the lungs unless it reaches the deep veins.
posterior legThe Small Saphenous Vein (SSV) is a superficial vein of the posterior leg. It drains the leg's lateral surface and runs up the leg's posterior surface to drain into the popliteal vein.
Sometimes superficial thrombophlebitis spreads to a deeper vein (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT). These deeper clots can be serious, even life-threatening. It is very important that you follow your doctor's instructions, keep all follow-up appointments, and watch for new or worsening symptoms of a clot.
Thrombophlebitis (throm-boe-fluh-BY-tis) is an inflammatory process that causes a blood clot to form and block one or more veins, usually in the legs. The affected vein might be near the surface of the skin (superficial thrombophlebitis) or deep within a muscle (deep vein thrombosis, or DVT).
SVT in the superficial axial veins (great saphenous vein or small saphenous vein) is generally considered to warrant aggressive treatment with low molecular weight heparin to prevent extension into the deep venous system, particularly if the SVT is close to the junction with the common femoral or popliteal veins.
Treatment of Superficial Venous Thrombosis Most often, superficial venous thrombosis subsides by itself. Applying warm compresses and taking an analgesic, such as aspirin or another nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
