    (Emergency Medicine Physicians Assoc Turkey, 2013) Kaya, Mer; Yucel, Neslihan; Gulbas, Gazi; Ermis, Hilal; Kutlu, Ramazan
    Phlegmasia cerulea dolens is a rare condition caused by complete venous occlusion and often results in tissue necrosis, limb amputation, or death. In this study, a 51 year old female presenting at our emergency department with leg edema, leg pain and cyanosis and was diagnosed with phlegmesia cerulea dolens, which is a life-threatening complication of deep venous thrombosis. Prompt diagnosis and treatment initiation are important to prevent pulmonary emboli, gangrene, amputation, and, ultimately, death.
