Introduction

Neonates with congenital heart disease are at a high risk of vascular thrombosis. Thrombosis may occur due to vascular injury, increased blood viscosity secondary to polycythemia associated with congenital cyanotic heart diseases, or stasis of blood flow associated with low cardiac output (Schmidt B & Andrew M., Pediatrics 1995; 96: 939–943. Veldman A et al.,Vasc Health Risk Manag 2008; 4: 1337–1348).
