    This document discusses post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), a long-term complication of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) characterized by chronic leg pain, swelling, and other signs. PTS is caused by damage to veins and valves from DVT. Risk factors include age over 65, obesity, lack of long-term anticoagulation, and location and recurrence of DVT. Signs of PTS include edema, hyperpigmentation, and venous ulcers. Prevention focuses on DVT prophylaxis, optimal anticoagulation duration, preventing recurrence, and compression stockings. PTS has a social impact through increased medical costs, lost productivity, and decreased quality of life.
