Abstract:
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common disease with high risk for death and recurrence and can severely impair patients' quality of life.Despite decades of study on this troublesome disease,there are still many unsolved problems in terms of pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment.Hundreds of articles with various study methods and controversial research results are published every year.Thus it is crucial to keep track of reliable recent studies and articles on VTE in order to better understand it and to handle intricate related clinical events more reasonably.We reviewed high-qualified articles and guidelines from recent years and summarized VTE-related progresses in this review.
