Abstract
Venous ulcers are the most severe manifestation of post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). We have previously demonstrated that formation of compact fibrin clots resistant to lysis is observed in patients following deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) who developed PTS. The current study investigated whether unfavourable fibrin clot properties can predict post-thrombotic venous ulcers. In a cohort study on 186 consecutive patients following DVT, we determined...
