Abstract

Abstract:

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the critical vascular diseases with high mortality. However, the clinical manifestation of patients suffered from pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with VTE is lack of specificity, which commonly leads to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis, leading to an increased risk of death. The author reported two cases of pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with VTE and reviewed relevant literatures, with the purpose of improving the cognition of these diseases and guiding clinical standard treatment.

Key words: Venous thromboembolism, Tuberculosis, pulmonary, Case reports, Literature review (topic), Consensus development conferences (topic)
