BACKGROUND: @entity49 ( @entity49 ) is a @entity74 with a wide variety of clinical manifestations. There are few studies describing the clinical and epidemiological profile of @entity49 in peripheral or rural areas. Over the last decades, the frequency in which this disease is diagnosed has increased due to greater awareness and availability of noninvasive diagnostic techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A hospital-based retrospective case review of adult (>= 15 years) @entity1 with @entity49 between 2001 and 2012 is described. 31 @entity1 with confirmed imagiological diagnosis of @entity49 were included. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Statistical analysis was performed using R version 2.15.2. Incidence rate was computed as number of new cases by time. Confidence interval (CI) was set at 95% and P < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: The average annual incidence was 0.84 (CI: 0.58-1.18) to 0.73 (CI: 0.5-1.02) per 100 000 cases for adult population. There were 23 (74%) @entity1 and 8 (26%) @entity1 . Predominant initial manifestations were @entity10 , followed by @entity1032 and @entity410 . Median diagnostic delay from onset of illness was 8 days. All @entity1 were treated with unfractionated heparin or low-molecular heparin followed by @entity1229 . Complete recovery occurred in the majority of cases 22 (78.6%) but two @entity1 died during hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS: Albeit with some particularities, the epidemiology and clinical manifestations we found are comparable to what has been reported in western studies.
