A Silent Threat: Deep Vein Thrombosis in Early-Stage Parkinson’s Disease
The primary risk factors for lower extremity venous thrombosis were found to be age, d-dimer levels, and low-dose levodopa. Therefore, for elderly patients with early-stage PD, it is crucial to conduct d-dimer and lower extremity vascular ultrasound tests. The prevention of venous thrombosis in the lower extremities of early PD patients is of utmost importance.
