Real Women- Real Experiences- 16.1.19
Citing a case of a 36 years old woman , resident of sector 11,Kharghar, Raigad who , a couple of months ago, delivered her 5th child which is a boy by normal delivery after having 4 girl children .
Afterwards she underwent a Puerperal Tubal Ligation ( permanent family planning operation of female)
Both her delivery as well as PTL were uneventful.
She was discharged from hospital, fully mobile and in good health clinically .
After a couple of days, she complained of swelling in one of the legs.
Ultrasound and color doppler showed that a thrombus ( blood clot) is forming in the veins of the leg.
Clinically this condition is called - DVT- Deep Vein Thrombosis
Pregnancy is a hyper-coagulable state ( more tendency of forming clots )
It is body's natural defense against uterine bleeding which is a part of natural birthing process.
The patient was managed with the help of clot dissolving injections like Low Molecular Weight Heparin- LMWH- Enoxaparin- Clexane, followed by embolectomy ( removal of clot through telescope) in a higher center with ICU and CVTS ( Cardio Vascular Thoracic Surgery) facility.
Timely reporting of the complaint on patient's part and urgent actions taken by the medical team, prevented a catastrophe, which could have been amputation.
