Overview
The clonal hematopoiesis of indetermined prognosis (CHIP) has been described as risk factor for juvenile atherosclerosis. Moreover, some of CHIP genes are responsible of myeloproliferative disorders. Venous thrombosis are frequent in these disorders. The purpose of this project is to determine if CHIP is frequent in unprovoked pulmonary embolism and could be part of the pathophysiology.
Interventions
- Biological blood sample
Blood sample withdrawal in order to perform DNA sequencing
Primary outcome measures
- Variation of CHIP markers between patients groups [Time frame: up to 2 years]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- For cases : Previous proximal unprovoked pulmonary embolism, negative thrombophilia screening.

Exclusion criteria
- Age superior to 65 years old,
- Active cancer
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
