表在性静脈血栓症患者844名を対象に、静脈性血栓塞栓症の罹患率・リスクを前向きコホート研究で調査。登録時に210名（24.9％）の患者が静脈性血栓塞栓症を合併しており、合併がない患者でも、3カ月間の追跡期間中に600名中58名（10.2％）で血栓塞栓症の合併が見られた。

Abstract

Background: Superficial venous thrombosis (SVT) is perceived to have a benign prognosis.

Objective: To assess the prevalence of venous thromboembolism in patients with SVT and to determine the 3-month incidence of thromboembolic complications.

Design: National cross-sectional and prospective epidemiologic cohort study. (ClinicalTrials.gov registration number: NCT00818688)

Setting: French office- and hospital-based vascular medicine specialists.

Patients: 844 consecutive patients with symptomatic SVT of the lower limbs that was at least 5 cm on compression ultrasonography.

Measurements: Incidence of venous thromboembolism and extension or recurrence of SVT in patients with isolated SVT at presentation.

Results: Among 844 patients with SVT at inclusion (median age, 65 years; 547 women), 210 (24.9%) also had deep venous thrombosis (DVT) or symptomatic pulmonary embolism. Among 600 patients without DVT or pulmonary embolism at inclusion who were eligible for 3-month follow-up, 58 (10.2%) developed thromboembolic complications at 3 months (pulmonary embolism, 3 [0.5%]; DVT, 15 [2.8%]; extension of SVT, 18 [3.3%]; and recurrence of SVT, 10 [1.9%]), despite 540 patients (90.5%) having received anticoagulants. Risk factors for complications at 3 months were male sex, history of DVT or pulmonary embolism, previous cancer, and absence of varicose veins.

Limitation: The findings are from a specialist referral setting, and the study was terminated before the target patient population was reached because of slow recruitment.

Conclusion: A substantial number of patients with SVT exhibit venous thromboembolism at presentation, and some that do not can develop this complication in the subsequent 3 months.
