| pubmed-article:1605169 | pubmed:abstractText | Recently, the authors managed three patients with AIDS and venous thromboembolism. All three were active, ambulatory, and without known risk factors for pulmonary embolism or deep venous thrombosis. One patient had a low titer for IgG anticardiolipin antibody (1:13). Two had low normal values for free protein S, and the third patient had a very low value (5%). Clinicians caring for AIDS patients should be alert to the possibility that venous thromboembolism may complicate HIV infection. | lld:pubmed |
