Recently much attention has been focused on the high incidence of thromboembolism following major hip surgery–and in particular total hip reconstruction. Mortality is at least 1.8% following total hip replacement in the absence of prophylaxis. Because of the difficulties encountered with use of anticoagulants such as warfarin sodium and heparin sodium,

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) encompasses deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, both of which can present on a spectrum from subtle symptoms to life- and limb-threatening emergencies. Some risk factors for VTE overlap cardiovascular risk factors and statin therapy can somewhat reduce the VTE risk.

• The treatment of thromboembolism has been changed by the development of antibiotics and anticoagulants. The rationale of phlebotomy to remove thrombi and of ligation of large veins to prevent embolism is now questioned, since further surgery increases the circulatory difficulties and dangers.

Why, the question may be appropriately asked, should there be, in 1986, a 3-day symposium on warfarin prophylaxis—a drug, after all, that was introduced into clinical medicine 45 years ago?

Pulmonary embolism is a complication of venous thrombosis. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, but a condition that is highly preventable and, when diagnosed, very effectively treated. Yet in the United States, more people die of pulmonary embolism each year than of AIDS. The clinician must maintain a high index of suspicion at all times in
