Description
Randrianarisoa and co-authors report a 75-year-old man whose leg pain lasted three weeks while a standard blood test for clots kept coming back negative. Ultrasound finally showed an extensive clot in the deep veins of his thigh and pelvis. Their 2026 case warns that a negative D-dimer result does not rule out a clot that has been present for some time. Clinical suspicion, they argue, should outweigh the blood test and prompt imaging.
