    Abstract:
    Thromboembolism was found in 1060 (11.9%) of 8926 retrospectively studied autopsies. Thromboembolism of the lesser (pulmonary) circulation was the most frequent (7.3%), the domination of females was noted (62.8%). Peak in both males and females was within the age group of 70 to 79 years. The most frequent source of the pulmonary circulation thromboembolism was the lower limb veins. Thromboembolism of the pulmonary (31.9%) and greater (61%) circulation was most frequently observed in the ischemic heart disease. Monthly variations were not statistically significant.
