Abstract

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Prothrombin G20210A Prothrombin G20210A Mutation Thrombophilic State Total Knee Replacement Surgery
The term “thrombophilia” is generally used to designate states of hypercoagulability caused by an inherent abnormality of the coagulation system, resulting in an increased risk of thrombosis. Abnormalities of blood flow or the blood vessel wall, the other two components of Virchow’s triad that increase the risk of thrombosis, are not considered a thrombophilia.
