Abstract The etiology of pediatric venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is multifactorial, and in most children, 1 or more clinical risk factors are present. In addition, inherited thrombophilic disorders contribute to the development of pediatric VTE. In this review, the role of inherited thrombophilic disorders in the development of pediatric VTE, as well as the benefits and limitations of thrombophilia testing, will be discussed.

Venous thromboembolic disease (VTE) is a common presentation in acute medicine and ensuring fast, accurate diagnosis and appropriate management is important. Getting it right not only reduces mortality but can also reduce the long-term complications associated with the disease such as post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
