Thrombosis may be due to:
- Endothelial injury.
- Altered blood flow E.g. abnormal stasis.
- Hypercoagulability.
Often associated with other disease processes for example Disseminated intravascular coagulation.
Commonly see posterior paralysis of cats with cardiomyopathy.
Spontaneous venous thrombosis is rare. Seen in cattle with traumatic reticulo-peritonitis in the caudal vena cava.
