reasons for recurrent VTE despite anticoagulation
The following conditions are associated with an increased risk for recurrent thromboembolism despite anticoagulation:
- anatomic compression (i.e. May-Thurner syndrome, Thoracic Outlet syndrome, etc.)
- antiphospholipid syndrome
- cancer
- dysfibrinogenemia
