Intro. Le syndrome post-thrombotique (SPT) est la complication chronique la plus fréquente après une thrombose veineuse profonde (TVP). Syndrome peu connu, malgré une prévalence de 20-50%, il se caractérise par des symptômes d'insuffisance veineuse chronique apparaissant après une TVP. L'utilisation de bas de compression graduée (BCG) diminue de moitié le risque de développer un SPT. Mais un problème de faible compliance est souvent un obstacle dans la prise en charge. Le but principal de cette étude sera de déterminer le lien entre l'adhérence au BCG et le développement de SPT Méthode. Il s'agit d'une étude cas-témoin, mono-centrique, avec inclusion prospective et consécutive des patients avec une TVP. Les patients recrutés recevront un traitement standard pour une TVP (anticoagulation thérapeutique pendant 3 mois et BCG pour une durée d'un an) et seront suivis sur une année avec 4 visites médicales (V0-V3) et 10 entretiens téléphoniques (I1-I10). A la fin de l'étude, sur la base de l'adhérence au port du BCG, les patients seront divisés en deux groupes: bonne adhérence au traitement (cas) et faible adhérence (témoin). Conclusion. Il est certain que ce sujet a besoin de recherches pour mieux comprendre le développement, trouver une prévention et des traitements efficaces et acceptables afin d'améliorer leur qualité de vie des patients.

This study is a long-term analysis of a group of patients with infected arthroplasties of the hip or the knee. We identified 28 patients with an infected arthroplasty (22 hips, 6 knees) documented by bacterial culture or on direct examination. At the time of diagnosis and on follow-up (a mean of 46 months after treatment) we evaluated the clinical picture, the radiological appearances of the articulation and the biological parameters. 19/28 patients showed a typical clinical picture, whereas in 9 others the picture was more doubtful. The treatments were 14 two-stage replacements of the arthroplasties, 7 simple resections, 5 conservative treatments and 2 one-stage replacements. On follow-up, 25 patients were considered as cured of their infection and 3 as failures. From a functional viewpoint, 9 patients showed no limitation, whereas 19 were limited in the daily activity. Half of the patients had no pain. Radiology showed that 20/26 evaluated patients had no signs of recurrence. Paraclinical examinations are important in the diagnosis of persistent low grade infections, particularly the demonstration of bacteria by pre-surgical sampling (fine needle aspiration, culture from draining sinuses). In spite of the cure of infection, the functional and painful sequellae are often considerable. As a result of our experience, we recommend a two-stage surgical procedure. Only when the general condition of the patient is poor, or when the infection is not under control, would we envisage an alternative procedure (arthrodesis, girdelstone, conservative).

Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is the most frequent chronic complication of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with an estimated prevalence of 30-50%. PTS is a significant cause of disability, especially when complicated by venous ulcers. Therefore, PTS has important socio-economic consequences for both the patient and the health care system. Actually, the efficacy of PTS treatment is very limited; therefore, best treatment remains prevention. Compression therapy, particularly by graduated compression stockings (GCS) has a pivotal role in PTS prophylaxis. Aim of this article is to resume state of the art literature on this subject. Recommendations on PTS prevention have even been reported.
