Large inferior vena cava thrombosis in a 25-year-old female patient: A case report
We found a large IVC thrombus secondary to SLE in a young female patient. In this case, systemic thrombolysis or CDT did not improve the thrombus. The thrombus only improved after immunosuppressive treatment for SLE. Our case highlights the importance of treatment for etiologic disease in an intractable thrombosis developed by provoked cause.
