16
Q

Venous thrombi characteristically occur at

A

sites of stasis.

17
Q

Estrogen in thrombosis

A

estrogen increases plasma concentrations of these clotting factors by increasing gene transcription

18

Hyperestrogenic states (pregnancy and postpartum)
Oral contraceptive use 
Cardiomyopathy 
Nephrotic syndrome 
Sickle cell anemia 
Smoking
Obesity

25
Q

Fate of thrombus

A
Propagation
