Abstract
Stay at high altitude may predispose to thrombotic cerebrovascular disorders. The role of inherited procoagulant states in predisposing to these events has not been well studied in the Indian subcontinent. With increasing role of Indian soldiers at these heights for long periods and development of adventure tourism in our country, there is a need to study this aspect to establish a basis for risk profile assessment and screening tools for primary prevention of high altitude related strokes and other cerebrovascular events.
