Abstract :
Leukemia with thrombocytosis can cause peripheral artery disease. Arterial thrombotic complication in myeloproliferatif disease canoccur with only mildly elevated platelet counts. A-50-years old woman with history of leukemia and diabetes developed ischemic leftfoot. She got pain and paralysis as initial symptom. Platelet count was 1004000/μL. An angiogram demonstrated occluded one thirddistal of left femoralis superficialis artery and there was thrombus. Treatment with trombectomy Forgaty found thrombus 15 cmlong. We perfomed Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty (PTA) with the result distal run off until anterior tibialis artery. PTA andthrombectomi Forgaty can be considered as the complementary treatment for these patients. (FMI 2015;51:59-65)
