title: [Cancer and deep vein thrombosis].
abstract: Cancer patients with thrombosis and haemorrhagy are a particular problem. They have an increased risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and they're more prone to bleeding from anticoagulant therapy. So it really is a dilemma. Clinical research has shown that prevention and initial therapy can consist of subcutaneous low-molecular-weight heparin for an initial period, followed by long-term anticoagulant therapy.
