Description

Surgical procedures create a uniquely pro‑thrombotic environment. Virchow’s triad—venous stasis, endothelial injury, and hypercoagulability—describes the foundation of thrombus formation, and all three elements are markedly amplified during and after surgery. Together, these factors significantly raise the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which can progress into life‑threatening pulmonary embolism (PE).
