[Recent aspects of thrombogenesis and thrombosis prevention].

Proceeding from experimental and natural conditions the modern opinion concerning the importance of Virchow's triad for the development and prophylaxis of thrombosis is explained. As to the point change of the quality of blood the author enters the newer findings of the behaviour of heparinocytes, fibrinolytic proactivators and split products as well as other endogenous protective mechanisms. The dependence on age of the heparinocytes and thymocytes is compared and the possible common root of the thrombogenesis and the genesis of tumours is taken into consideration. The influence of sexual steroids, nutrition, the consumption of coffee, tea, cigarettes, alcohol, etc., influence of weather and light on the endogenous and medical prophylaxis of thrombosis is discussed.
