Prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism in cancer patients: project of clinical guidelines

Main Article Content
Abstract
Cancer-associated thrombosis is an actual issue in the intersection of cardiology and oncology. Active cancer
counts for approximately 20 % of the total number of cases of venous thromboembolism (VTE), and VTE is one of the leading cause of death in cancer patients, second only to cancer progression. VTE in cancer has some features that distinguish it from other VTE cases. The combination of cancer-related, treatment-related and patient-related factors increases their overall risk of VTE. The experts of the Cardio-Oncology working group have created a practical approach guideline for the management of VTE in cancer patients based on a multi-disciplinary strategy, ESMO, ASCO recommendations. This document has collected information on VTE, bleeding events and treatment modalities in cancer patients that may be beneficial for clinicians in determining strategies of anticoagulant therapies in these patients. Clinicians of various specialties using these recommendations will be able to determine the most appropriate VTE management algorithm, taking into account the bleeding risk, the type of cancer with its treatment, and drug interactions.
