Abstract:
The abdominal vein thrombosis is an unusual and rare, but potentially a life threatening form of thrombosis. Much is known, studied and published about the venous thrombosis in the lower limbs and to some extent in upper limbs, where as the abdominal vein thrombosis still remains an unexplored area. The diagnosis of abdominal venous thrombosis has increased with awareness of the entity and the availability of better imaging modalities. Despite advances made in the management of venous thrombosis, the knowledge of events predisposing to abdominal thrombosis is largely unknown. This gap in knowledge needs to be studied and analyzed for better patient management. The study aims at analysing various risk factors in patients of abdominal venous thrombosis.
