Inflammation, Thrombogenesis, Fibrinolysis, and Vein Wall Remodeling After Deep Venous Thrombosis

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Inflammatory Response in Cardiovascular Surgery

Abstract

Venous thromboembolism and its sequelae, postthrombotic syndrome and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, affect millions of people worldwide. The purpose of this chapter is to present recent and current research focused on defining the mechanism that drives vein wall remodeling aftervenous thrombosis.
