Hypercoagulability of the blood (in dialect: thrombophilia) is a state of damage to the blood clotting mechanism: the blood clots too easily or excessively. This injury results in the formation of thromboses - an unwanted thrombus (blood clots) in the veins or arteries, the blood clots may drift in the bloodstream, and among other things reach the lungs and cause a pulmonary embolism and in some cases also to the brain and cause a stroke, which can cause morbidity, disability and even life-threatening conditions.
Thrombophilia can be acquired (during life) or congenital (inherited), and it may be temporary or permanent.
In general, hypercoagulability results from a disturbance in the composition of the blood, and in particular from a disturbance in the coagulation system and coagulation factors.
