venous thromboembolism - Opis:
- Venous thromboembolism often coexists with cancer, deteriorating patient prognosis. The diagnosis of cancer in patients who suffer from venous thromboembolism may lead to changes in the anticoagulant therapy administered. We present a case report involving a 72-year-old patient with recurrent venous thromboembolism and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in whom the diagnosis of colorectal cancer resulted in the need for modification of the anticoagulant therapy. Oral anticoagulant was replaced with low molecular weight heparin and an inferior vena cava filter was implanted due to active bleeding from the anus, high perioperative risk of bleeding, which caused the need for a temporary interruption of anticoagulant therapy.
