Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is one of the commonest cardiovascular diseases, ranking third behind coronary artery disease and stroke [1]. Furthermore, it is one of the major causes for inhospital morbidity and mortality, leading to severe complications such as pulmonary embolism (PE), post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and even death [2]. Local damage to venous intima, venous stasis and hypercoagulability are major predisposing factors, and it is thought that two of these factors must be present for a DVT to develop [3].
