PG - 483-489 LID - 10.1024/0301-1526/a000729 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: We analysed differences in hospitalization rates for venous diseases such as pulmonary embolism (PE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), sinus vein thrombosis (SVT), portal vein thrombosis (PVT), and Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) as well as for arterial diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI) and embolic stroke (ES) in females and males aged 10 to 39 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Detailed lists of hospitalizations with the principal and additional diagnoses for PE (ICD-code I26.0 + I26.9), DVT (I80.0-I80.9), SVT (I67.6), PVT (I81), BCS (I82.0), MI (I21.0-I21.9), and ES (I63.1 + I63.4) in males and females aged 10 to 39 years in the years 2006 to 2015 were provided by the Federal Statistical Office in Germany. RESULTS: Considering the 10-year period there were more female than male cases hospitalized with the principal diagnoses for PE, DVT, SVT, and BCS. Looking at the principal diagnosis of the year 2015, one can see a steep increase in numbers of hospitalization for PE, DVT, and SVT in females ranging from the ages 12 to 13 and 14 to 15 years compared to males. The curves of PE and DVT meet again in the age group between 32 and 33 years, but not for SVT. The greatest differences are seen at the end of the second and at the beginning of the third decade of life. In contrast, MI was more frequent in young males beginning at the age of 18 to 19 years. The number of female and male cases with ES and PVT were almost similar in the different age groups. CONCLUSIONS: The presented data show higher hospitalization rates for females in the age group 10 to 39 years for different venous thrombosis but not for MI and ES.
