”The history and historical treatments of deep vein thrombosis: toward the era of new anticoagulants
By Jean Philippe Galanaud, Jean Pierre Laroch, and Marc Righini
• Context: Over centuries, the management of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has evolved from empirical bloodletting to the precision of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs).
• Overview: This historical review traces how DOACs revolutionized therapy—simplifying treatment, redefining duration and intensity, and reshaping clinical guidelines.
• Reflection: Despite progress, the “philosopher’s stone” of anticoagulation—perfect safety without loss of efficacy—remains elusive. Novel FXI/XIa inhibitors and AI-guided individualized therapy may herald the next transformation in DVT care.”
