Description
Arvin Bozorg Chenani, Ramadan Ahmed, and Sarath Vayolipoyil present a severe leg clot emergency in a 2026 case report. A 55-year-old man arrived with four hours of sudden swelling, pain, and numbness in his left leg. The limb was tense, blue, and hugely swollen, with pulses fading during examination.
Blood tests showed inflammation and a markedly raised clot marker, and ultrasound found extensive vein blockage. Wider imaging traced clot from the leg veins into the vena cava, plus clots in the lungs. The condition, phlegmasia cerulea dolens, threatens the limb itself, so fast recognition drives the report's message.
