Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Presence or absence of ultrasound findings in favor of asymptomatic DVTDay 7 and 35

After orthopedic surgery, patients are put under LMWH thromboprophylaxis based but some patients may be carrying an asymptomatic DVT. so we'll try the distal venous thrombosis rate in these patients using Doppler ultrasound.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability clinical Enox ® in these patients.3 months

Criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of Enox ®:

* Onset or without clinical signs of deep vein thrombosis in clinical postoperative

* Onset or without clinical signs of pulmonary embolism after surgery
