Significance of shear wave ultrasound elastography in predicting one-year posthospital outcomes of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis

https://doi.org/10.33667/2078-5631-2024-35-95-99

Abstract

The aim of the study was to analyze the results of shear wave elastography data of iliac and femoral vein thrombi in the acute period of the disease to identify ultrasound parameters that are prognostically significant for posthospital outcomes.
Material and Methods. At the hospitalization stage, 153 patients with iliac and femoral vein thrombosis underwent venous ultrasound with shear wave elastography. Depending on the outcome of the disease 6–12 months after discharge from the hospital, the examined patients were divided into 3 groups: with recanalization, venous retrombosis and death.
Results. In those with the outcome “retrombosis” the thrombus stiffness during inpatient treatment was higher than in the groups with the outcomes “recanalization” and “death”. According to the Accuracy and Gini coefficients for iliac vein thrombosis, the values of maximum and mean Young’s moduli of iliac vein thrombus on the first, third and sixth days of hospitalization, whereas in femoral vein thrombosis – maximum, average and minimum Young’s moduli of femoral vein thrombus on the mentioned days and minimum Young’s modulus of sural vein thrombus on the first day of hospitalization. The variables separating the posthospital outcomes “recanalization” and “death” in iliac vein thrombosis were the maximum Young’s modulus of femoral vein thrombus on the first day of hospitalization and the length of the floating part of the thrombus; in femoral vein thrombosis – the maximum Young’s modulus of the saphenous vein on the first day of hospitalization, the PE mass and the duration of the period from the first symptoms to hospitalization.
Conclusion. The results of shear wave elastography at the hospital stage of management of patients with DVT allow predicting the recurrence of thrombosis in the following year based on the stiffness values of the proximal part of the venous thrombus and lethal outcome based on the stiffness of the thrombus in the inferior vein of the affected limb.
