    AbstractDirect oral anticoagulants recently became the first-line choice for anticoagulation in venous thromboembolic disease. Many studies have shown its non-inferiority regarding the risk of thromboembolic recurrence compared to anti-vitamin K without increasing the risk of bleeding in the general population. However, specific populations such as patients with cancer, patients with kidney failure, patients with constitutional thrombophilia, elderly patients, or patients with extreme weight are at risk of intolerance to the use of direct oral anticoagulants. Precautions in use may be necessary as discussed in recently published guidelines about antiphospholipid syndrome. This review aims to list the main clinical trials investigating direct oral anticoagulants in venous thromboembolic disease in the general population and populations at risk, as well as to provide an update on current international and French guidelines.Copyright © 2021 Société Nationale Française de Médecine Interne (SNFMI).
