In this case report, we examine the increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with sickle-cell trait (SCT), illustrated by a patient with SCT who developed pulmonary embolism (PE) despite low scores on conventional risk assessment tools. The case prompts both a discussion of risk assessment and management strategies in this population.
在本病例报告中，我们研究了镰状细胞性状（SCT）患者静脉血栓栓塞（VTE）风险增加的情况，一名患有SCT的患者尽管在传统风险评估工具上得分较低，但仍发生了肺栓塞（PE），该病例引发了对这一人群风险评估和管理策略的讨论。
