الملخص

Tuberculosis remains as an infectious disease with a very high prevalence in the Indian subcontinent. Deep vein thrombosis in tuberculosis is due to the increased fibrinogen levels, release of inflammatory cytokines and decreased synthesis of anti-coagulant proteins. We describe a case of deep venous thrombosis of bilateral lower limbs in association with pulmonary tuberculosis and protein S deficiency.
