Résumé
Whether obesity is associated with recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in elderly patients is unknown. To examine the association between two obesity measures, the body mass index (BMI) and the waist circumference (WC), and recurrent VTE in elderly patients. We studied 986 patients aged ≥65 years with an acute VTE from a prospective multicenter cohort study (09/2009-12/2013). The BMI was determined and categorized as
