Overview
- Inherited thrombophilia must be differentiated from acquired thrombophilia, as it may influence the selection and duration of anticoagulation.
- Inherited thrombophilias should be suspected in patients with the certain clinical presentations.[1][2]
- Screening for inherited thrombophilias is controversial and should be performed in the appropriate clinical context.[3]
