Clinical case 70 y old, sedentary computer engineer 1 st episode intermediate high risk pulmonaryembolism(rv dysfunction, positives cardiac biomarkers) No surgery, trauma or immobilisation 24h ICU LWMH followed Xarelto Medical history: Excess weight Diabetes(glucose intolerance) Hypertension Inactive spondylarthritis HLA B27 Medication: Metformine Coaprovel Cardioaspirine
Clinical case Blood test: mild inflammatory syndrome, hypoxemia hypocapnia, Nt Pro BNP 4475pg/ml, USTroponin 50pg/ml ( ), GFR 56ml/min, PSA 8,17ug/l Whole leg US: acute DVT left popliteal vein
Clinical case Abdominal CT: no tumoral mass or venous thrombosis Urologic examination and US: normal prostatic volume, no explanation for PSA, -> check 6 weeks later
Clinical case Abdominal CT: no tumoral mass or venous thrombosis Urologic examination and US: normal prostatic volume, no explanation for PSA, -> check 6 weeks later -> 6 weeks later, PSA -> biospy: adenocarcinoma Gleason 6 -> total radical prostatectomy
Follow up 6 m post prostatectomy Xarelto 20mg od 6 m post total radical prostatectomy Urology: no additional chemotherapy or radiotherapy, persistent negative PSA Good clinicalimprovement, no residual dyspnea, no PTS Echocardiography: no CTEPH signs Legduplex US: no residual thrombus or reflux but subpopliteal veins retraction
Clinical question 6 m post prostatectomyand anticoagulation. Whatdo youdecide? 1 Discontinue anticoagulation 2 Continue anticoagulation 3 D dimer level 4 Discontinue anticoagulation ->aspirin

Clinical decision Consider high risk recurrence for PE and indication long term anticoagulation Which anticoagulant and which dose? 1) Therapeuticdose Noac(Xarelto, Pradaxa, Eliquis, Lixiana) 2) VKA INR 2-3 3) Prophylactic dose Xarelto 10mg od or Eliquis 2,5mg bid
