Clot structure and fibrinolytic potential in patients with post thrombotic syndrome

Introduction Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a chronic sequel of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The clot structure and fibrinolytic potential in PTS is currently unknown. Objective To assess the fibrinolytic potential and clot structure in patients with PTS. Materials and methods Patients with a history of DVT were included in a case–control study: patients with PTS (cases n = 30) and without PTS (controls n = 30), and 30 apparently healthy...
