Overview
A positive history of repetitive upper extremity movements in a patient presenting with arm discomfort and edema is suggestive of Paget-Schroetter disease.
History and Symptoms
- A positive history of vigorous upper extremity movements or even relatively minor day-to-day arm activities with or without dehydration in the presence of related symptoms is suggestive of Paget-Schroetter disease.[1]
- The most common symptoms of Paget-Schroetter disease include arm discomfort or heaviness, pain, swelling, and erythema of the upper extremity.
History
- Patients with Paget-Schroetter disease or effort thrombosis may have a positive history of:
- Sports-related arm exertion (often with sports that require repetitive hyper-abduction, extension and/or external rotation)
- Minor everyday upper limb activities[2]
- Onset of the Paget-Schroetter disease is usually acute or sub-acute, nevertheless some cases present with chronic symptoms.[3]
- Around 60-80% of cases with Paget-Schroetter disease have a history of repetitious activity of upper extremity with 85% occurred within last 24 hours of symptoms onset.[4]
- In 87% of cases, the Paget-Schroetter disease involves the dominant arm.[5]
Common Symptoms
Common symptoms of Paget-Schroetter disease include:
- Arm discomfort and heaviness
- Pain
- Edema and swelling
- Erythema of the affected upper limb
- Cyanosis (usually presented in late stages)[6]
- Paresthesia[7]
Less Common Symptoms
- Occasionally symptoms of Paget-Schroetter disease can mimic a muscular strain.
- Patients may initially presented with symptoms of Pulmonary Embolism.[8]
