This patient showed extensive thrombosis of the Lt. iliac, femoral and popliteal veins. Grey scale B-mode ultrasound images reveal echogenic thrombus within the lumen of the affected veins. These veins also show absence of compressibility on probe pressure. Color flow imaging shows absent flow in the iliac, femoral and popliteal veins of the left side. The normal veins of the right side are shown for comparison.
