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]
