Pulmonary Emboli and Deep Venous Thrombosis during Adolescence.
Journal of Pediatric Health Care 2018 May
Pulmonary emboli (PE) and deep venous thrombus (DVT) are two conditions considered to affect primarily adults.

Factors contributing to the development of PE and DVT are often associated with genetic mutations in Antithrombin III, Protein C, and Protein S.
