antithrombin levels are decreased due to their intake&#44; synthesis deficiency and neutrophil elastase-mediated degradation&#46; Protein C levels are low not only because of the decreasing synthesis and neutrophil elastase-mediated degradation&#44; but also due to the proinflammatory cytokines &#40;mainly tumor necrosis factor&#945;&#41;&#46; Endogenous levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor&#44; the major inhibitor of tissue factor-factor VIIa complex during inflammation is insufficient to activate the coagulation cascade&#46; These findings show that inflammation might move the hemostatic balance toward a prothrombotic state&#46; All this would cause damage to the venous wall and valves&#46; The end result would also be the occurrence of venous hypertension to be transmitted to the capillary bed with fluid transudation and large molecules and the emergence of tissue edema&#44;

usually worsens with prolonged sitting position or ambulation&#44; and improves with rest or elevation of the limb&#46; Venous symptoms associated with initial thrombosis may persist for several months and evolve without a transition period to chronic symptomatology&#46;
