Although regular sports activities decrease the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), VTE cases have been observed among professional and amateur athletes practicing various disciplines. The authors describe a case of a 25-year-old-woman in whom calf pain, as popliteal vein thrombosis manifestation--preceding pulmonary embolism, occurred after she took up spinning, a popular form of indoor cycling. There was no history of leg injury. In hemostasis work up, factor V Leiden mutation and acquired low antithrombin activity-related to oral contraceptives use, were found. Strenuous exercise in an untrained woman might augment prothrombotic hemostasis profile. Vigorous cycling in standing position in the last phase of spinning, seems to be most unfavorable for patients with high VTE risk. |
