Although direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) have become widely used, little is known about the efficacy of DOAC for isolated distal deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In-hospitalized orthopedic patients with isolated distal DVT who were diagnosed from 2016 to 2018 were enrolled and were followed for 1 year. Embolic events included symptomatic pulmonary embolism (PE) and DVT extension above the knee.

One significant observation, not often highlighted in previous literature, is that neurovascular complications are more common in cases involving delayed fixation, nonunion, or malunion, compared to those treated acutely.
