“Vive la revolution!” It’s June 5th, 1832, right at the start of what would be called the anti-monarchist June Rebellion in Paris, France. In this sketch, we'll explore the key concepts of Virchow's triad, the symptoms and risk factors of DVT, and the importance of early diagnosis using tools like the Wells score and D-dimer test. You'll also learn about treatment options, including anticoagulation and IVC filters, and the potential complications of untreated DVT, such as post-thrombotic syndrome.
