Overview

The authors apply guidelines for the prevention of deep venous thrombosis in neurosurgery. These guidelines are based on the recommendations of section of thrombosis and haemo­stasis, of the Hematology Society and the recommendations of the American and Canadian Society of Haematology.

Key words:
venous thrombosis – pulmonary embolism – prevention – neurosurgery
