Abstract
While rare, thrombosis in the pediatric population can result serious sequelae including death. The best treatment options have not yet been firmly established for this age group. During childhood, there are age-related changes in components of the coagulation system that can affect treatment choices. This review article gives an overview of pediatric coagulation and describes the current state of percutaneous treatment options including local thrombolysis and thrombectomy.
