The etiology of thromboembolism in hospitalized children

Abstract

<p>Inherited thrombophilia can explain approximately 30% of venous thromboembolism. Putting together all thrombophilic conditions, inherited or acquired, we can probably explain the great majority of venous thromboembolism cases. Yet, there are cases still classified as idiopathic because no risk factor could be identified. In this article we documented the patients who were hospitalized because of venous thromboembolism and tried to determine the frequency of inherited prothrombotic disorders.</p>

<p>Hastanede yatan ?ocuklarda saptanan tromboz etiyolojisi</p>

<p>Kal?tsal tromboz nedenleri ven?z tromboembolilerin ortalama % 30?unu olu?turur. Kal?tsal ve edinsel trombofilik risk fakt?rleri, ?o?u durumda ven?z tromboembolilerin nedenlerini a??klamaya yeter. Ancak hala altta yatan bir risk fakt?r? saptanamad??? i?in idiyopatik olarak de?erlendirilen olgular vard?r. Bu yaz?da hastanemizde tromboz nedeniyle yatarak tedavi alan hastalarda saptanabilen etiyolojik nedenler ara?t?r?larak, ?ocukluk ?a?? kal?tsal nedenli trombozlar?n?n bu olgulardaki pay? incelenmi?tir.</p>
