Abstract
Preview The list of recognized risk factors for deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism is formidable. Classic findings of edema, warmth, erythema, and tenderness are often absent. A clinical impression of deep venous thrombosis is correct only 50% of the time and must be confirmed with imaging studies. Management includes thrombolysis, surgical thrombectomy and, in some cases, lifelong use of anticoagulants.Keywords
