Aberrant venous anatomy as a risk factor for thromboembolic events in patients with Klippel-Trénaunay Syndrome: case-control study within a cohort study.

Published Jul 18, 2020

• Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome increases the risk for thromboembolic events. • The individual risk for thromboembolic events is difficult to predict. The presence of specific aberrations in venous anatomy increases the risk for thromboembolic events. This knowledge provides a guide to identify high-risk patients eligible for prophylactic treatment.
