Deep Vein Thrombosis: Related to Anemophilous Pollen? / 华中科技大学学报（医学）（英德文版）

ABSTRACT

The etiology of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is still not elucidated nowadays.Based on the accordance between DVT incidence and the anemophilous pollen concentration in the air,we proposed the hypothesis that allergic reaction induced by anemophilous pollen may cause “idiopathic” DVT,and proinflammatory factors may play an important role in the thrombosis process.
