摘要：

Objective. - Deep-vein thrombosis is common but not easy to diagnose. It is generally considered that the diagnosis can be ruled out in subjects with a D-Dimer level lower than a reference threshold value. We report a case where this hypothesis was misleading. Method. - An 89-year-otd man was hospitalized for a pain in his left tower leg, which had been persistent for 5 days. Results. - The venous duplex ultrasound found two recent deep-vein thrombi in this leg while the D-Dimer level was lower than 220 Ul/ml at admission. Conclusion. - This case illustrates the importance of prudent interpretation of the serum D-Dimer level. (c) 2007 Elsevier Masson SAS. Tous droits reserves.
