Cancer patients frequently experience bleeding and clotting issues. Venous thromboembolism may indicate an undiagnosed malignancy, necessitating prompt diagnosis and management of hemostasis changes.

Area of Science:

Oncology
Hematology
Thrombosis Research

Context:

Tumorous diseases present complex hemostatic challenges, including hemorrhagic and thrombotic complications.
A significant association exists between malignancy and venous thromboembolism (VTE), with 15-20% of VTE patients having an undetected cancer.

Purpose:

To review hemostatic alterations in cancer patients.
To discuss diagnostic approaches for cancer-associated thrombosis.
To outline pharmacological prevention and treatment strategies for thromboembolism in malignancy.

Summary:

Cancer patients are prone to bleeding (e.g., thrombocytopenic hemorrhage) and clotting disorders.
Migrating thrombophlebitis can be a specific indicator of underlying tumors, particularly pancreatic cancer.
