A member asked:
If there is no blood clot what other explanations can there be for an elevated d dimer result . would for example a phoecromocytoma give an elevated result?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
D-dimer: Is a non specific inflammatory marker that can be increased in a variety of medical conditions and not used in the right context may create more questions rather than answering one. Notoriously increased in malignancies and infections.
