    Citation Excerpt :

    Our study confirms that young age, unprovoked DVT, especially if proximal and bilateral, should raise the suspicion of IVCA. This is in line with prior reports in the literature, suggesting that patients with lower limb DVT and IVCA are typically young, most likely men, more likely to have unprovoked proximal DVT, and less likely to have coexisting PE [2,4–6,13–22]. Findings of this study and prior reports, collectively, hint that presence of unprovoked, particularly proximal and/or bilateral, DVT in young patients should raise the suspicion for IVCA and may require additional imaging.
