Introduction Patients with lower‐leg cast immobilization and patients undergoing knee
arthroscopy have an increased risk of venous thrombosis (VT). Guidelines are ambiguous …

Background There is room for improvement of prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE)
after lower-leg cast application or knee arthroscopy. Information about the mechanism of clot …

Background Due to the poor specificity of D-dimer, more accurate thrombus biomarkers are
clinically needed to improve the diagnostic power of VTE. Methods The plasma samples …

It is unknown how lower-leg injury and knee arthroscopy, both associated with venous
thromboembolism (VTE), affect coagulation. To study the effect of (1) lower-leg trauma and …

Patients at high risk for venous thrombosis (VT) following knee arthroscopy could potentially
benefit from thromboprophylaxis. We explored the predictive values of environmental …

Background Lower‐leg injury and knee arthroscopy are both associated with venous
thromboembolism (VTE). The mechanism of VTE in both situations is unknown, including the …

Background Patients with lower-leg injuries and those undergoing knee arthroscopy are at
increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism. The mechanism is unknown …

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major complication following lower-leg cast
immobilization and knee arthroscopic surgery. In this review, we aimed to give a …

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious complication following orthopaedic surgery. 1
However, VTE is largely preventable if patients receive appropriate thromboprophylaxis …

Background Trauma patients are high-risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Lower
